The Mossberg Patriot rifle in 6.5 PRC with a 24-inch barrel and stainless Cerakote finish (brand part no. 28245) gives long-range hunters a modern, high-performance cartridge in a durable metal finish. Mossberg pairs the 24-inch barrel with a 1-in-10-inch twist rate matched to 6.5 PRC’s typically heavier bullet weights, and a 3+1 detachable magazine keeps the rifle field-ready. The stainless Cerakote finish resists wear and corrosion better than a standard blued barrel, and the synthetic stock keeps the rifle manageable despite the longer barrel. Among bolt action rifles, this Patriot configuration favors long-range hunters chasing elk and other big game at extended distance.
