Design and Fit

As a bolt action in the Bolt Action category, the Super Bantam retains the Patriot’s reliable three-lug bolt and solid lock-up while reducing overall length and weight for easier handling. The Strata Camo synthetic stock is durable in wet and rough conditions and helps keep weight down during long walks to stand or blind. The removable 1-inch spacer is a practical solution for families or youth programs where shooters will change sizes over seasons.

Barrel, Optics, and Accuracy

20-inch fluted, threaded barrel

The 20-inch fluted, threaded barrel is a standout detail: fluting reduces weight and aids cooling, while the threaded muzzle accepts muzzle devices or suppressors for hunters who need quieter reports in sensitive areas. The included 3-9x40mm scope gives a usable optic straight from the box for mid-range hunting shots.

Caliber: 350 Legend

The chambering in 350 Legend provides straight-walled cartridge performance ideal for many deer seasons, offering manageable recoil and effective terminal energy inside typical hunting ranges. For shooters transferring from larger calibers, the 350 Legend balances stopping power with shootability—particularly helpful for new or smaller shooters learning fundamentals.

View product details and pricing — the retail price is listed at $514.99, making this a compelling value for a purpose-built youth/compact hunting rifle with premium features.

Field Use and Final Notes

For hunters seeking a lightweight, suppressor-ready bolt action tailored to smaller frames, this rifle delivers. The adjustable length of pull, included scope, and threaded barrel make it practical right out of the box. Its design is specifically aimed at growing shooters without sacrificing the accuracy and reliability expected from the Patriot line.
