Detailed Features 

The 24-inch fluted barrel is threaded at the muzzle for a brake or suppressor. Cerakote coating on the stainless steel barrel provides corrosion resistance for wet-weather or coastal use. Mossberg's LBA (Lightning Bolt Action) trigger is user-adjustable, which is a practical feature at this price point. The rifle arrives with Weaver-style bases already installed, so a set of rings is the only additional hardware needed to mount optics. 
 
The synthetic stock is straightforward — no adjustable cheekpiece or length-of-pull spacers, but it holds up to field use without care-intensive maintenance. 
 

Usage Notes 

.300 Win Mag is a versatile large-game cartridge effective at long range on elk, moose, and similar-sized animals. The threaded muzzle and relatively light weight are practical combinations, though a brake is worth considering given the caliber's recoil.

The Mossberg Patriot in .300 Win Mag gets reasonable marks for what it costs. Owners consistently point to value as its main attribute — it delivers workable accuracy and a usable trigger without the price of a higher-end bolt gun. The Cerakote finish and the LBA trigger adjustability are two features that stand out at this tier.

On the negative side, some owners report feeding hiccups during initial break-in, though most indicate these work out after a few hundred rounds. A number of experienced shooters note the fit and finish is noticeably less refined than more expensive options, particularly in the stock bedding. The 6.5 lb weight surprises a few buyers who expected a light carry rifle, though for a .300 Win Mag the weight is actually on the lighter end. Those looking for long-range precision benchrest performance generally find the Patriot falls short of purpose-built accuracy rifles, but for a hunting rifle at its price it performs adequately.
