Mossberg 28258 Patriot Super Bantam w/Optic 350 Legend 4+1 22" Matte Blued Fluted Threaded Barrel, Matte Blued Drilled & Tapped Receiver, Adj LOP Muddy Girl Wild Synthetic Stock, 3-9x40mm Duplex

The Mossberg Patriot Super Bantam with optic in 350 Legend is a bolt-action rifle purpose-built for hunters and shooters of smaller stature, younger shooters still growing into full-size guns, or anyone who benefits from a more compact platform. This isn't a scaled-down compromise—it's a genuine Patriot with the same proven action, trigger, and accuracy features you'd find in the standard line, just engineered to fit bodies and shooting styles that don't need full-size proportions. At 7.5 lbs with a 22-inch fluted barrel, it's nimble enough for woods hunting without sacrificing the accuracy foundation a good rifle demands.

The adjustable length of pull system is the real story here. The stock comes set at 12 inches, and you get a removable spacer to extend it to 13 inches, giving growing shooters and recoil-sensitive hunters a custom fit without buying a new gun. The fluted barrel sheds weight and heat, while the threaded muzzle opens options for sound suppressors or muzzle devices down the road. You get a matte blue finish throughout—receiver, barrel, and bolt—that's durable and low-glare, paired with a Muddy Girl Wild synthetic stock that's tough as advertised and easy to clean. The drilled and tapped receiver is ready for optics, and this model ships with a 3-9x40mm Duplex scope mounted and ready.

Under the hood, you'll find Mossberg's user-adjustable LBA trigger (tunable from 2 to 7 lbs), a spirally fluted bolt that cycles smooth, a recessed match crown on the barrel for consistency, and a drop-box magazine holding 4+1 rounds. The 350 Legend round is a sensible intermediate cartridge for deer and similar game—legal in more states than traditional rifle cartridges, mild on recoil, and accurate to reasonable hunting ranges. This rifle earns its seat in the safe whether you're introducing a junior to centerfire hunting or building a truck gun for someone who values fit and handling over an oversized platform.
