Mossberg Patriot Super Bantam .350 Legend 18 in.

Description

The Mossberg Patriot Super Bantam is built around shooters who are smaller in stature — younger hunters and adults who find standard-length rifles unwieldy — without asking them to give up a capable chambering or a full-featured action. The MultiCam synthetic stock is fitted with an adjustable length of pull, so the rifle can grow with a shooter rather than becoming uncomfortable as they develop. That adjustability matters most in a hunting context, where a rifle carried into cold weather wearing layered clothing needs to mount differently than the same rifle in a t-shirt at the range.

The 18-inch barrel keeps the overall package short and easy to carry through thick cover, a real consideration for whitetail hunters in dense brush. The .350 Legend chambering drives heavy, wide-diameter bullets at moderate velocity, producing enough energy for deer-sized game while keeping felt recoil at a level that won’t discourage a new shooter. The 1:16-inch twist rate is suited to the range of bullet weights .350 Legend is most commonly loaded with — faster stabilization isn’t needed here because the cartridge isn’t running the ultra-heavy projectiles that demand it. The threaded barrel leaves the door open for a muzzle device without requiring permanent modification. The receiver is finished in Patriot Brown Cerakote and topped with a Picatinny rail, so mounting an optic is straightforward — and given that no iron sights are included, a scope or red dot is the expected setup. Mossberg’s Lightning Bolt Action trigger is user-adjustable for pull weight, which allows the shooter to dial in a cleaner break as their technique matures.
