Someone donated this rifle in .308 to my charity hunt group. I put a good vortex scope and rings on it. I was a little bit worried with all the reviews I saw. I bought two boxes of federal 150 grain JSPs because I had seen several videos that showed heavier bullets not grouping well. Once it was dialed in, my 3 shot groups were all touching, so sub MOA. I did use a lead sled to eliminate my error. So, happy with the performance of my freebie. I do have the synthetic stock.

Appreciate the review on this one. Backfire had a horrible time with this rifle. And I want to love this rifle. It takes several good reviews to reinstall the confidence to buy a firearm after there's been a bad one.

Thanks for the video. I have the Patriot Revere model in .308 with a Leupold 3-9x40mm VX-2 scope and I get 1" groups at 100 yards shooting from a bench rest. I don't have any accuracy issues with my rifle.

Thanks for the honest review. I'm watching from the Yukon Territory, Canada. I just bought a Mossberg Patriot and it came with the Vortex 3-9x40 scope chambered in .300 Win Mag. In September I'll be going out moose and bison hunting (buying the 200 grain for those suckers). I realize having a tight grouping really isn't that important for hunting, it's more important to have an excellent first shot. So, I'm hoping this rifle will be "good enough" to take anything about 400m or closer.

Thanks for the video! I have one too but the wood stock and I adjusted the trigger I love it. I don’t know why they get a bad name for it.

Nice rifle. I hunt white tail with my 30-30 Henry. I do have a rem 700 .308 with the magpul furniture takes the aics pattern mags. Got a vortex up top and a Harris bipod underneath. Thing drives tacks. It’s one of the 26” some odd barrel and I’d like to get it cut down - maybe 20” maybe 18”. And also I did snag a Geissele super 700 from eBay and man that thing is sweet. Got a 6pt buck big body, 18” spread. Upstate NY. Chasing a big doe - got to 70 yds, i give him the ole “ayee !” And he stopped, turned broadside to me and I let it fly. Dropped on the spot. 170gr CoreLokt. Thanks man.

Yep,,i think I'll stick around a watch some more👍🏼 good review.

Thanks for the honest review

Hello from Slovakia. Best results with my moss .308w is 2" from 100m (109yd) with 180gr FMJ with moderate load (40,1gr D073.4 czech lovex powder) and with 150gr SPCE with small load- relatively slow (37gr D073.4 lovex ) Lovex D073.4 is same as accurate 2230.

your right on this review, i've reviewed the patriot predator, and the strata . good deer hunting rifle, but not a perfect moa gun!!

First off, I like the channel name and the whole vibe. Not having to prove expert status or elite background. Just people, guys and gals, who like to shoot and hunt. When I got into rifles about 4 years or so ago (I had shot some before in the 70s,) my first one to buy was the Mossberg Patriot .308 Win combo with Vortex 2-9X40 mm Dead Hold (second focal plane) scope. It kicked hard. And I would use the fingers of my off hand as a cushion. I still have that rifle, among others. It did approximately 1 to 2 MOA and I know that was mostly me. In fact, with any of my rifles, the fliers and drifting was just nearly always me and I start out assuming I am the one who needs correction. I totally believe and understand Ryan Cleckner (1st Ranger Batt. 75th Ranger Reg. Sniper Team Leader) that the human is the least accurate part of a weapon system, such as a rifle. I put the Patriot in a chassis system. Turns out that made the length of pull too long and I have a hard time getting a good eye box on the scope. Still, it was averaging 1 MOA with a hot barrel. So, I have migrated it back to a Mossberg synthetic stock. I still have the black but decided to get an OD Green. Much lighter. I still had to raise cheek comb with craft foam and vet tape but I have a good eye line and eye box, now. And an Arken SH4 Gen 2 4-16X50 mm scope, that I might change out to a 6-24. And give that a try and probably get as good as 1 MOA because my shooting technique has improved. I discovered a secret for consistency. Don't concentrate on holding exhale. For some, that is the comfortable respiratory pause. For others, not so. The key is to find the moment of calm, whenever that is, even at the top or near the top of a breath or top of an exhalation. It is your moment of stillness. That is the time to fire, ignore the heartbeat. My Mossberg MVP LR-308 averages 1/3 MOA. My Windham Weaponry R16SFST-308 (AR-10 style rifle) hits dead center of the cross hairs. I like to call that sub MOA. My Thompson Center Compass II .308 Win is averaging 1/2 MOA. At closer distances, I am going through the same holes. As in, not making the holes bigger. Going through the same holes without making the holes bigger. So, my intention is to do that with my Patriot. As I have become a better shooter, I have also learned to not suspect a problem with the equipment.

Tornado? Na let’s go shooting😂 great video

I have moss patriot 308 and have no issues with anything I get great groups at 150 yards and even in rain and high winds still have no problem I do have pinty scope on my nothing fancy on it like tripod or anything else

I have a 30-06 in it. I seem to hit very good with mine

I have a mossberg Patriot.308 with a Nikon 3x9x50 scope with BDC and I get nickel groping with 5 shots at a 100 yds the key to this is to know your gun and scope , and 1-1/2” at 300 yards . you really need to know how your gun shoots take your time with it and hold the gun as steady on the gun stock, the least amount of movement is the best shooting with a floating barrel. try it out and have fun and see for yourself.

Good man

Is this gun still grouping well?

I bought a Patriot Krytex 22250 that had a defective trigger that warranty replaced before I even shot it. When it came back I ran my borescope though it..SWISS CHEESE. There was galling, chatter marks and area of gouges. Worst BARREL I've ever seen. High areas on lands where copper was literally ripped of the bullets. I Sent pictures to Mossberg and the reply was.. It's safe to shoot..lol

Is that the range at mayflower?

Accurizing is hard. It’s more juju than science.

Mine shoots fine

I've had 3 Mossberg rifles, a mvp & two patriots unfortunately none of mine shot under 2" I've not had that with other brands, maybe Mossberg got it together but I'm not willing to risk it again with my money unfortunately

Backfire channel reviewed one a couple of times. Based on the results he got, it is the only rifle I will roundly criticizes as a pile of garbage. That's not just marginally true. It's well within the zone of true.

Mossberg Patriots are really ammo picky for accuracy and if you add a muzzle break they get down right smooth

The stock is a problem.
