The Mossberg Patriot .308 Winchester rifle (Mossberg part no. 28216) blends a value-driven price with features usually reserved for pricier bolt guns, making it a favorite for hunters filling out a deer camp battery. A fluted barrel and spiral-fluted bolt trim weight without giving up the rigidity a .308 needs for consistent accuracy. The Cerakote stainless metalwork shrugs off rain, snow, and years of field use, while the walnut stock keeps a classic look on the rack. Mossberg also equips the Patriot with a user-adjustable trigger, so shooters can set their own pull weight instead of living with a factory-fixed trigger. Paired with a 5-round magazine, it’s a straightforward rifle for whitetail, hogs, or any game .308 Winchester is built to handle.
