Description
The Mossberg Patriot in 6.5 Creedmoor is a proven, value-oriented bolt-action hunting rifle built around a button-rifled carbon steel barrel and Mossberg’s classic Patriot action. This Patriot wears a 22″ fluted barrel with a recessed muzzle crown, delivering the long-range accuracy the 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge is famous for while cutting weight over the non-fluted version of the same rifle.
The barreled action is treated with Stainless Cerakote for corrosion resistance in wet, snowy, or coastal hunting conditions, and is paired with Mossberg’s classic-style walnut stock. Receiver-mounted Weaver-style scope bases come pre-installed so you can mount your optic right out of the box. Sling swivel studs are included up front and on the stock for easy sling attachment, and the spiral-fluted bolt body sheds a bit more weight while adding a touch of visual flair.
Feeding from a detachable 5-round box magazine (plus one in the chamber for a 5+1 capacity), the Patriot handles the long-range, low-recoil 6.5 Creedmoor with ease – equally at home chasing whitetail through the timber, reaching out past moderate ranges, or filling the freezer on the open prairie. The 22″ fluted barrel gives up a couple of inches versus longer magnum setups without sacrificing meaningful velocity from the efficient Creedmoor case.
Whether you are stepping into centerfire long-range shooting for the first time or looking for a reliable, weather-ready hunting rig in a modern precision cartridge, the Patriot 28217 delivers Mossberg’s signature blend of affordability, accuracy, and American-made quality.
