Features 

 
The adjustable LOP from 12 to 13 inches lets younger or smaller-framed shooters use the rifle comfortably and then extend the fit as they grow. The fluted barrel reduces weight while retaining stiffness and improves heat dissipation during extended sessions. The 20-inch barrel gives good velocity with .308 loads while keeping overall length compact at 38.5 inches. 
 
The included 3-9x40mm scope on a Weaver-style base is ready to use from the box, useful for buyers who want a complete setup without sourcing a separate optic. The LBA trigger is adjustable, and the crossbolt safety is positioned for quick access without shifting your grip.

Feedback on the Mossberg Patriot Bantam in .308 is mostly positive. The compact dimensions and adjustable LOP are the primary selling points and receive consistent praise, especially from buyers who purchased it for youth or smaller-framed adults. The lightweight build relative to .308 rifles in general gets positive mentions.

Accuracy is frequently cited as solid for a production hunting rifle. The included scope package is considered a good value for buyers who want a complete setup out of the box, though some experienced shooters swap to better glass. Stock quality is noted as functional but basic compared to higher-end options. Overall it's widely seen as a reliable and reasonably priced compact hunting rifle.
