Mossberg Patriot Predator: Precision Crafted 350 Legend Rifle

When precision matters on a predator stalk or a dawn patrol, the right bolt-action rifle balances accuracy, durability, and straightforward function. We look for rifles that put useful features in the hands of hunters and professionals without unnecessary complexity, and this model deserves a hard look.

MOSSBERG PATRIOT PREDATOR

Design and chassis: rugged, modern, and field-ready

The MOSSBERG PATRIOT PREDATOR brings a purposeful look and function to the Bolt Action category. Its 22-inch fluted, threaded barrel in a matte blue finish is not just for aesthetics — the fluting reduces weight and increases surface area for faster cooling, while the threaded muzzle accepts brakes or suppressors for modular use in the field. The 11-degree match crown demonstrates a manufacturer focus on accuracy at the muzzle, protecting the bore and improving projectile release consistency.

The Flat Dark Earth synthetic stock combines ruggedness with modern ergonomics. This stock is built to resist the elements, deliver a stable shooting platform, and present a low-maintenance exterior that’s ideal for those who spend long days in varying conditions. Top-mounted Picatinny rail makes optics mounting simple and repeatable for hunters who swap glass depending on mission or range.

Action, trigger, and handling

The Patriot Predator’s smooth bolt-action design is paired with an oversized bolt handle for rapid, confident manipulation — a feature you’ll appreciate on cold mornings with gloved hands. The user-adjustable LBA trigger allows shooters to tune pull weight to personal preference or local regulations, producing a crisp break that helps convert good holds into tight groups.

Practical ergonomics

From the raised cheek weld of the synthetic stock to the oversized bolt knob, the rifle emphasizes instinctive handling. For predators, varmints, and medium game work where quick follow-up shots and ergonomic simplicity count, those refinements matter. The combination of a free-feeling, well-crowned barrel and a predictable trigger contributes directly to on-target first shots.

Chambering and performance: the 350 Legend advantage

This platform is chambered in 350 Legend, a cartridge designed to deliver effective terminal performance on medium game while maintaining manageable recoil and efficient terminal energy at typical hunting ranges. 350 Legend’s straight-walled case offers advantages in jurisdictions where straight-walled cartridges are required, and it’s a solid choice for hunters seeking a balance of knockdown power and shooter-friendly recoil for longer sessions afield.

While the Patriot Predator is optimized for field use, the fluted threaded barrel and match crown also make it a capable baseline for accuracy upgrades and specialized loads. With proper ammunition selection and scope pairing on the Picatinny rail, expect predictable, repeatable performance from point of aim to point of impact.

Accessories, optics, and mounting considerations

The factory top rail speeds optics installation; choose a mid-height hunting scope or a low-power variable optic to maintain a natural cheek weld and quick target acquisition. The threaded barrel opens options for muzzle brakes or suppressors to tailor recoil and muzzle rise. Given the synthetic stock and rail, adding a lightweight bipod or sling mounts for extended glassing sessions is straightforward.

At an MSRP of $465.99, the Patriot Predator positions itself as a value-driven entry in the bolt-action market—offering modern features without leaning on premium pricing. For hunters and range users looking for functionality over flash, that price makes it an approachable choice for a serious field rifle.

Maintenance and long-term use

Cleaning a threaded, fluted barrel is no different in principle than a standard barrel, but pay attention to the threading and any muzzle device interface when ensuring alignment and secure torque. The synthetic stock requires minimal care: wipe down after wet conditions and inspect sling/fastener mounts for secure attachment. Regular bolt lubrication and bore inspections will keep the action running smoothly season after season.

Upgrade path

Owners can pursue optics, recoil-reducing muzzle devices, or an aftermarket bolt knob to suit personal preferences. The Picatinny rail simplifies glass swaps, and the user-adjustable LBA trigger allows for tuning without immediate aftermarket trigger purchases. These options create a sensible upgrade path while keeping initial purchase costs reasonable.

Who should consider this rifle?

If you want a Bolt Action platform that blends accuracy-focused details with practical features for the field — threaded fluted barrel, 11-degree match crown, Picatinny rail, and an adjustable LBA trigger — the MOSSBERG PATRIOT PREDATOR is designed for you. It’s an efficient choice for hunters pursuing predators and medium game or shooters who want a reliable, easy-to-maintain bolt rifle with modern ergonomics at a sensible price point.
