Mossberg Patriot 30-06 Sprg 22" 5rd Walnut Rifle

The Mossberg Patriot in walnut is the classic looking member of the family, and it feels right when you shoulder it. It is chambered in 30-06 Sprg, which still handles just about any North American game you are likely to hunt. The 22" fluted barrel has a recessed crown and is free floated, long enough to get good velocity from the cartridge and short enough to handle in thick timber. The drop box magazine holds 5rd and makes loading and unloading simple.

The spiral fluted bolt has a knurled handle that gives you a real grip for a fast follow up. Mossberg's LBA trigger is user adjustable, so you can set it up without a trip to the gunsmith, and a crossbolt safety handles the rest. Metal is matte blued, which keeps glare down on a bright morning, and the walnut stock is checkered with a recoil pad. Weaver style bases are already mounted, so your scope rings can go straight on. At 7 lbs it is a comfortable rifle to carry up a ridge and steady enough when you get there.
