Description
The Mossberg Patriot is a bolt action in 6.5mm Creedmoor with a 22" barrel, a 1:8 twist and 4-round capacity.
This barrel length is a common compromise: enough to develop most of the cartridge's velocity while staying manageable to carry. That is the standard twist for this cartridge, and it stabilizes the bullet weights most factory ammunition is loaded with. It ships without iron sights, so budget for an optic, rings and a base if you do not already have them.
The 6.5mm Creedmoor is commonly chosen for long-range target shooting and deer-sized game. It became the default precision cartridge because it delivers high-BC bullets with modest recoil and good barrel life.
This is a serialized firearm. It ships to a licensed dealer near you rather than to your door, and you complete the transfer there with a Form 4473 and a background check. State and local rules govern what can be shipped where, so check yours before ordering – and if you are unsure, ask us first.
Available in Walnut, Laminate, or Synthetic, the classic styled Patriot looks great on the gun rack and feels great when shouldered. The Patriot's button-rifled fluted barrels are free-floated and have a recessed crown for maximum accuracy. At 22" in length, the barrels are long enough to achieve full-velocity from every caliber, yet short enough for quick handling in the densest woods. The Patriot's attractive spiral fluted bolts feature an ergonomic bolt angle and knurled bolt handle offering plenty of grip for quick follow-up shots and enhanced shooter comfort. Its box-magazine-fed action makes loading and unloading a snap.
