Nice to see them put a walnut stock on this rifle.
Its too bad this whole "tactical" thing took over and now everyone makes rifles with black plastic stocks.
+mojo jojo on top of that Remington rifles with wood stocks are so expensive that the middle class and lower cant afford them without saving up for a year straight so Mossberg is the gun I'm going to go with for my first rifle for sure now.
KILLKING110 so save up for a year. saving up for a year will totally be worth it when you are out firing this beauty.
I agree 100 % a hunting rifel shouldnt be black ugly. Love this rifel i just got back from the range and mine shoots as good as it looks
Agreed!
I now have 4 of them. 243, 270, 30-06, and 350L
I couldn’t say any more good things about these rifles even if old OF wrote me a check himself. They’ve really captured the affordable serious hunting rifle with this platform
Nice job mossberg !!!
Love mine in 30-06... wish I would have got the wood stock...
I don’t hunt nor do I think I will any time soon. But I’ve been seriously considering getting this gun.
Just because I don’t have a hunting style rifle in my collection and I just love the old school wood hunting rifle look it has.
Would you say it’d be stupid for someone like me to get one?
If you’re not going to hunt is it still a fun and worthwhile rifle to get?
@@AJ-gk7bn absolutely. Bench shooting with an accurate rifle is fun. Enjoy
Nice!
@@AJ-gk7bn you should!
Thank you. I purchased a Mossberg Patriot in 270 in 2020 and I'm very pleased. It handles well and is very accurate.
Same. I also opted for the 270. Good gun great price
Thanks for the quick and complete review.
I just ordered the exact same rifle in 7mm magnum! Cant wait to get it! 😀 A beauty!
Thanks for your review! I’ve been waiting for you to post it.
Bought the .308 w/Vortex package for $500. Dropped the first deer I shot right where it stood with 150g Federal Power Shok at maybe 85 yds. This rifle looks classic, shoots well, the Vortex holds zero well and is plenty bright. All in all a great package if you are looking--get one! Mossberg's site now suggests MSRP at $665 so price might be going up!
I got the same package in 338 win mag, shot my white tail in the head, now that’s not ruining the meat lol
Awesome quick and simple review
Don't own a Patriot but have the older 4X4 with the synthetic kind of skeletonized stock in 7 Mag. Absolutely love that rifle. Handloading Hornady 162gr in it and I have sub 1" groups all day. Have taken several deer and a couple elk with it. Mossberg is a great rifle.
Thanks Mr. Spomer for your reviews. I trust your experience and your practical approach to things. Best of luck this hunting season. Hoping to get my Patriot soon!
Did you ever get it?
just picked up a patriot synthetic in 270 with the vortex scope
iv;e got 2 in 308 my brother got 1 in 30-06 they will shoot 1 inch groop at 100 yards with winchester ammo all day long we LOVE them can't go wroung GO MOSSBERG!!!!!!!!!!
Great video. I'm going to try to find one of these Patriots.
Just picked up the same rifle in 30-06 can't wait to try it out
Same
Got mine Jan 2021. No ammo on shelves. Bummer.
Great gun, great all around caliber. Good choices.
@@whitesox9671 just gotta sop around.
I own one and I love it
I have a walnut older 2015 and it shoots 1/4 inch with Hornady Precision Hunter 150 grain ELDX. Mine has checkering with Clover leaves and a Boyd Recoil pad. I love the gun and most of my rifles are custom shop Browning. Mossberg hit it out of the park. I should not admit I have a 7mm-08.
I can't find one right now and my local sportsman's warehouse does not know when they will be back in stock. I'll be 58 this year and I would like to learn how to hunt deer . This rifle seems like the best quality for the money.
It is, mine is beautiful and accurate.
I have been hearing negative reports about this rifle ,accuracy wise.
Probably from people that can't shot
I had one in .243 and it shot great. Easily MOA with cheap Remington Core Lokt 100 grain. My only complaint about the gun was not having a locking bolt when the safety is on. The gun was $310 final cost new, so it was a good buy. Stainless steel finish/synthetic stock.
@@stansmith1134 Backfire bought one and it shot groups up to 6 inches. They tried several different types of ammo, mounted and remounted the scope, sent it back to Mossberg and it didn't come back any better. Several other channels have said the same thing. So, it appears to be the luck of the draw. You might get a good one, you might get a bad one, but either way, you are stuck with it.
@@stansmith1134 No, from people that shoot a lot, and are decent at it. Major feeding issues and accuracy issues. I want to see Spomer put more than three rounds through the gun to see if his is a fluke experience.
Have one in 308 it's accurate an shoots tight groups just a great all around hunting rifle
this rifle shoots better than i do.
My 270 patriot is amazingly accurate
I just got a steal. Found a new, cerakoted stainless steel barrel in 375 Ruger for $380!!!
I love mine, it’s in 338 win mag.
Just had a friend with a FFL order me one. Plastic stock without scope $266 not counting shipping and sales tax.
I love mine it’s a great rifle. Exact same shot grouping I get with mine yet everyone tells me they can’t get a good group.
Just bought a Patriot with the Vortex scope combo in .308. Chose the black synthetic stock for now. FYI Boyds is working on replacement stocks for this Patriot line and I plan to utilize one once available. They told me to check back with them mid to late summer. I'm planning on getting a thumb hole one. This is a great rifle to consider if your on a budget. Primarily planning to use on south Texas hogs but it should prove to be a good all around utility rifle. Want to note its my second Vortex scope product and I'm equally impressed with it. Price the rifle and scope independently and you can see its a killer deal getting the two paired together right out of the box.
+Jeremy Wills Vortex is an excellent optics company. I had a 6-18 x 44 and was very pleased with it.
The wood stock is a gem.
I just got my Patriot in 308 from Buds, I could only find 308 with black(youth) plastic stock with the 1" piece that screws on the back, for the price under about $350 can't complain.
Tough break the wood stock is amazing.
What style/ model base did you use to mount the scope on? I have recently bought my Patriot rifle and a Leopold scope, but I'm not sure what kind of base I should use for it.
Hey guys I have one of these in 7mm mag with no issues what so ever but I would like to find out what the problem is with others I've put around 200 shots through it and it's great hoping it will stay that way
You have a great speaking voice.
Good video review, one thing about bolt gun reviews i really want to see while shooting the gun but for some reason people never want to show, is the bolt throw of the the spent shell, i relize u want to save it or dont want to go look for it after, but during a review let the shell fly when u rack the bolt! People watching want to no that it has a good throw and not just kinda fall out like the savage hog hunter!!
That's a darn good idea, Nak. I've done that on a few vids -- the Mossberg Patriot Revere most recently, as I recall -- but not always. Thanks.
I have this gun is good for hunting
the rifle is awesome! i have had so much fun with mine in 30--06.
the only disappointment was that i was promised a Vortex sight on my rifle as a combo sighted in and ready to go straight from the manufacturer and NOPE i did not get a vortex scope on it.
I had that happen too. My gun guy checked and the model number specifically for the vortex is what he ordered for me. He got the distributor to admit he was selling through them so fast he had to order the cheaper dead ringer to keep up. I said yeah that’s fine so where’s my $40, the difference in price at wholesale? My dealer was pissed when he realized he was being cheated for almost $2000 with what he had sold to that point.
That said , the dead ringer isn’t a bad scope for the short action calibers. As long as the price is right it’s a fair deal. But they are not an even swap with the vortex at any level.
How many rounds for the short action chamberings Ron?
Good video. No nonsense. Are there any negatives though?
It’s not a precision group shooter, but it’ll hit what you’re aiming at every time
Mossberg's New Patriot Bolt Action Rifle Shoots MOA
Maybe yours does, but a bunch of other ones don't.
The magazines and how nicely they load is sweet, I'll grant you that.
Mine struggles to hold a 10" group at 100 yards, I'm not kidding.
@@jeffboutilier5075 the chamber might not match the bore. The manufacturing plant messsed up the matching on a batch of them.
So many ppl hate on this rifle Mine is great.
whats it max range?
Do they make these in a left hand bolt?
I've been searching for a scoped bolt action for a little while now, it'll be my first long range gun with optics and I wanted to keep it fairly cheap. This rifle seems like the best choice so far. Do you think its a good first rifle and what are some flaws you see in it?
Definitely
@@Ron-Swanson this comment was from 7 years ago but I appreciate the feedback
Maybe you never found one you like
@@LEIBO99😂
How would you compare to a Ruger American?
This rifle is getting reports of having accuracy issues. BackfireTV for one and those guys know what they’re doing. They are not the only ones either. I looked at one and the fit and finish looked nice, but after a little research shied away and spent a bit more on a Tikka. It might depend on the one you get but the pattern was disturbing. I wanted to like it. I own a couple of 500’s that are outstanding.
Mine in 338 win mag shoot sub 1 inch with good ammo. I saw that review before I purchased mine and though they were full of shit, I was right!
That backfire guy is lame….wants to be a UA-cam gun guru ….looks like a trust fund kid that needs a hobby
Good shooting rifle for sure. Anyone that is new you could save 150 extra dollars and get a tikka t3 that will out perform anything from 100-1000 dollar price range. Just a subjection.
+JOSH Pittman You can get the Patriot with the walnut stock for less than $380 and with a Vortex scope for less than $500. If you prefer a synthetic stock, you can get a Patriot with a non-branded scope for less than $330. Sure Tikkas are fine, but where are you getting a Tikka for $150 less than any of these prices?
I said save an "Extra" 150 dollars as in save a little more money to put towards a little more expensive gun. People who are buying a mossberg in general probably don't have much money, but if you're gonna spend 400 dollars what's 150 more for a much better gun. Moa accuracy doesn't impress me nearly every rifle produce now days can do it or better. It's just quality I would be more concerned with.
+JOSH Pittman Very few of the the hunters I know, have ever heard of Tikka and prefer familiar Rugers, Remingtons and so on and have no idea what MOA means, yet their freezers are full for the season. Their rifles won't see daylight again until September. Most have only one rifle and one shotgun that does all they want. $150 or even $15...they wouldn't spend it. I don't hunt, but I do enjoy shooting sports and I collect. I'm more of a handgun guy and I don't mind spending extra for a quality 1911. For my rifles, I generally buy lower end guns, from companies I know. I'll toss out the synthetic stock and add a nice looking wood stock and add a scope. If it already has a scope, that's good enough for my needs. Most of my shooting is 25 to 100 yards, with some occasional shots at 200 yards. I have Mossberg shotguns, but had no idea they made rifles. The Patriot was the first rifle I've purchased that needed nothing. The wood stock looks great and the supplied Vortex scope meets my needs and then some. It only took a few shots to get it hitting where I wanted. All for less than $500. What more could I ask? Something I've learned, is with guns, like many other things, you can spend as much as you want. You can get a rifle and scope with a synthetic stock for around $300 or so, or you can go for a Kilimanjaro Doctari, that starts at nearly $20,000 plus upgrades and scope. I'm quite happy with the Mossberg.
All of what you are saying is true. Remingtons and rugers are heads and shoulders better built guns then mossberg. For long term use and somebody that will shoot there rifle over and over again I would get something of more quality then a mossberg. I was just trying to lead people in a much better direction. My next gun I will buy will be a savage model 12 low profile in 300wsm. Not because it's an expensive gun but because it's made well and shoots great. Savage is a cheap gun considering what you can pay 900 for the one I want 500-700 for a good scope. At the end of the day with 99 percent of things you pay for what you get.
Ron, what caliber is that wood Patriot rifle that shot a 1" grps?
Ron what caliber was that? 30-06, 280, 270 ??
what exactly did you mean in the title saying it shoots MOA? the scope or what?
Ahhh, thank you so much! I always thought it just had to do with the scope for some reason. Will definitely keep that in mind when looking for a rifle!
My mossberg in 308 shoots moa with factory ammo.
It depends on shooter. right?
@@KOK678770 not really, the shooter doesn't change what the gun can do more what he can do with it.
I have seen these be tack drivers but also be so bad even out of a sled the group was terrible .
how many yards
What caliber was it 270 or 7 rem mag. ?
My 13 year old son shot his first deer last year with his Patriot in 30-06 its a great gun.
what was the rifle in this video chambered for? the action looks like a short, but that ammo box was pretty tall.
*****
Thanks!
+Ron Spomer How would you compare the 7mm Rem Mag to the .300 Win Mag? I've been looking at both and i'm not sure which one I want to get. Seems that the 7mm has flatter trajectory for really reaching out there, but up closer, which one seems to be the better of the two? Also, how to they both compare when it comes to recoil? Thanks and just recently subbed to your channel!
*****
Thanks for the response I really do appreciate it. I too was leaning towards the 7mm Rem Mag myself. I live in Florida where most ranges are 200 or less, but we do have open field areas and pastures where the shots can be double that. Most people here hunt with .243, .270 and .30-06 mostly, but it seems that 7mm has gained popularity here recently for those longer shots. Ammo is available at every Walmart, Academy Sports, and Gander Mountain around here for pretty good prices. Most people around here as far as projectiles go use anything form the old fashoned Core-Lokt's to Hornady Superformance SST's which I really like.
Is that a Leupold on it.
nice looking firearm,,do they make this in 223 or 243?
+garageguy879 243
@@killemall1983 yes it comes in a 243 as well.
Have and early 4x4 in .270 with 24 in. barrel. Needs a good wood stock, but the Boyds stock as I want it: 50% figure walnut, pillar, Fleur d' lis checkering, grip cap, ebony fore-end tip, recoil pad, will cost easily $100 more than the rifle did. :)
Does anybody have a video or know a link of a video of how to clean the patriot with the caliber being a 308? and full disassembly
TheOneNOnly cleaning any bolt action is the same.

hi..not sure why,but every video that ron does,its impossible to hear...ron,have your sound man,check the meters.....i enjoy your videos,but iits too hard to hear....
Yep….sound is way too weak! Would really like to hear all the comments!
You're correct. He needs to implement an audio compressor and limiter. Most of youtube posters suck at audio.
Funny, I'm not having a problem... and I have service-connected, age related, hearing loss.
I've got the 270 version, with a vortex 6.5x24x50mm do you think I would need the leupold prw high rings? Thanks
Ive come to the conclusion that the QC has dropped over the years, certain reviewers have been handed cherry picked rifles or paid off to give biased reviews
What's the scope?
Do the magnum Patriot rifles come with 22" barrels as well?
yes all patriots are 22" barrels
what caliber were you shooting.
Eric Love 30-06 I think
7mm
22 cb short
where could i find a store that shipping international?? im afraid to be fooled by some online websites that selling that rifle.
i need suggestions where is safe to buy a rifle that shipping the gun international!!!

Where did you get the bases from? Thanks
+Ron Spomer ok thanks, I actually just purchased the rifle yesterday, what rings are you using? Thanks
it takes a 2 pec. remington 700 bace you have to trun the back base around .....
It doesn’t shoot Mia it shoots mils
What shooting distance?
Thank you
What caliber are you shooting?
7mm Rem. Mag.
25.06 in anything less than a 26in barrel is useless compared to other calibers
I agree, but I put a 24 on mine, as it was immediately available, but would have preferred a 25 or 26in barrel. It shoots sub MOA now with the cheap factory Stevens 200 stock. I like the longer barrel for slower powders and bigger bullets. I like at least a 24 on ANY bolt gun other than a lever gun, carbine, pistol or home defense shotgun.
What was the distance on those shots?
100 yards.
@@RonSpomerOutdoors Thank you sir
Its the rifle that wishes it was a Savage 111 lightweight hunter.
does this gun come with a scope or do I have to buy one? and would this rifle work for a tall guy with long arms like me?
+KILLKING110 It can be purchased without a scope, with a non-branded scope or a Vortex scope and with several different stocks. Mossberg's website covers it all.
What chamber did u get it in???
Have had one in 7mm Rem. Mag., one in 300 Win. Mag. and my favorite now is one in 6.5 Creedmoor. That one's the upgraded Revere with pretty wood. Fun.
Nice.
Love my 7mm magnum.
Thinking of getting a 6.5 creedmoor or a 260 Remington. 😁
What does MOA stand for?
***** K. Thank you. I barely bought my first rifle so I'm trying to learn.
Shoots great,unless you get a bad one which are worse than bad.
Those "lawyer triggers" are pointless! Just one more thing to go wrong.
With the rifles out today 1 MOA, depending on the caliber that rifle is, isn't very impressive for a $500 dollar rifle. Ruger Predators are typically 1/2 MOA or better with factory ammo!
It's only a $500 rifle with the walnut stock and Vortex scope. With the synthetic stock and no scope, you can get it for less than $300.
@@jaydee5156 Still, 1 MOA isn't exactly "impressive"... You can find Ruger predators for about $400 if you shop around.
@@macgyver5108 Well maybe you just need to do that. Bye.
@@jaydee5156 I did, mine shoots 1/4 MOA with ELD-X and 1/2 MOA with everything else I've shot out of it.
@@macgyver5108 I also have one and I am happy with it, but the cheesy plastic stock went in the dumpster before I left the parking lot. I replaced it an aftermarket stock that was more to my liking.
Someone explain to me how a rifle can shoot two shots touching then the next left an inch or so like that? If it put 2 touching I'd think it'd do that every time if you aimed same spot?
not the rifle it's mostly the person pulling the trigger
Why is this dude on his front porch
Yet I have a neighbor that has one and he'd be lucky to hit a milk jug at 100 yds.
Don't what mossberg you have but the one have have can't shoot at all
Great looking rifle just can't shoot
24" no available
It is in the Revere model.
How much they pay you??
You looking to start a new career? Pumping gas doesn't do it for you, anymore?
i have one...and its a nice looking gun...but that is the only thing good i can say about it ..its accuracy is not good...averaging 8 inch groups at 100 yards with standard hunting ammo.. no matter what i do cant get much better than a 5 inch group .. even with different types and weights of ammo.. i wont even hunt with it now.. dont know what the problem is.. different scope, different rings were tried but still shot bad.... i will never buy another Patriot rifle again..
Anyone with experience with 375 Ruger.
Bear Meat Bowser Ive shot the 375 Ruger in the Patriot. Nice. Equals 375 HH. Stout recoil, but controlled. Grouped an honest 1.5 MOA.
I’ve heard more bad then good about this rifle
I just bought one in 6.5 creedmore in December 2023, the quality control is absolutely terrible. The stock had a noticeable warp and was actually touching the barrel in places, it also has an incredibly loose action, and headspace issues from factory. Absolutely would not recommend this rifle
Why the hell is he holding it by the scope
Because it was comfortable and convenient. Modern, one-piece main tube riflescopes are not so fragile that they break under the weight of an 8-pound rifle. In more than 50 years of picking up rifles by their scopes, I've yet to detect subsequent scope damage. I do not recommend using scopes to pound tent stakes.
Speak up sonny.
I know what you are going to think ... but i will never understand how can someone kill animals just for fun
Who kills animals just for fun?
Savage are better
mossberg patriot i had shot 4 moa at best no matter who shot it, garbage rifle.
Why the big push on short barrels? A 22 inch barrel J Wiz all that does is limit the potential of any cartridge .
A 22-inch Barrel would be good for a hundred yards or less .
Possibly good for youth on their first rifle when they're not going to shoot at anything over a hundred yards
This article may change your mind. The drop in fps is quite a bit less than expected. www.tacticaloperations.com/swatdec2000/
I had no problem shooting a doe at 175 yards and another at 150. Need a good scope and practice.
22 inches is long .. what are you on about , I’ve shot goats at 600 yards with mine . In fact I’ve shot 200 easy with a 15inch sks . Can people not shoot ?
You are joking, right?
Ignorance on display ...
