Mossberg 28240 Patriot w/Optic Full Size 7mm PRC 3+1 24" Matte Blued Fluted Threaded Barrel, Matte Blued Drilled & Tapped Receiver, Walnut Fixed Stock, Vortex Crossfire II 3-9x40mm Scope, Right Hand

The Mossberg 28240 Patriot with optic is a bolt-action hunting rifle built around the 7mm PRC cartridge—a modern magnum designed for serious long-range performance. This full-size rifle comes from the factory as a complete, scope-ready package, meaning you unbox it, sight in the included Vortex Crossfire II scope, and get to the field. It's purpose-built for hunters who want a powerful, accurate platform without the guesswork of component matching or scope selection.

The 28240 trades excess weight for precision: a 24-inch barrel with fluted profile and 5/8-24 TPI threading keeps things trim while reducing felt recoil, and the spiral-fluted bolt cycles smoothly with a streamlined handle that clears scopes. The receiver and barrel are drilled and tapped from the manufacturer, already wearing Weaver-style scope bases. The matte blued finish resists glint and corrosion. Inside, Mossberg's LBA (Lightning Bolt Action) trigger is user-adjustable from 2 to 7 pounds, letting you dial in a break that suits your hand and hunting situation. A three-round drop-box magazine feeds the chamber cleanly; one round is loaded in the pipe for a 3+1 capacity.

Accuracy starts with the recessed match-grade barrel crown and the rifle's rigid platform. The Vortex Crossfire II 3-9x40mm scope is a capable, fixed-magnification hunting optic that arrives mounted, ringed, and ready. The walnut stock is a fixed design with a 13.75-inch length of pull, anchoring the rifle with traditional looks and solid handling. At 8 pounds, it's portable enough for a day in the field but substantial enough to soak up recoil. This is a no-compromise, hunt-ready rifle for shooters serious about 7mm PRC capability.
