Chambered in \u003cstrong\u003e.308 Winchester\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Patriot combines a short-action, twin-lug push-feed receiver with a free-floating button-rifled barrel, detachable box magazine and Mossberg's adjustable Lightning Bolt Action trigger system. The Walnut configuration adds a classic timber sporting stock to an otherwise modern mechanical design, making it a straightforward hunting and recreational centrefire rifle with familiar traditional proportions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Patriot series was developed around a machined-steel action and a relatively simple mechanical architecture intended to provide consistent operation without unnecessary complexity. In .308 Winchester, the rifle uses Mossberg's short-action receiver format and combines it with a 22-inch barrel, a configuration intended to balance overall rifle length with the performance expected from the cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMossberg Patriot Walnut .308 Key Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e.308 Winchester Chambering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chambered in .308 Winchester, one of the primary short-action centrefire cartridges offered across the Mossberg Patriot family.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwin-Lug Push-Feed Action:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Patriot is built around a machined-steel push-feed action using two primary locking lugs, providing a conventional and mechanically straightforward bolt-action system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShort-Action Receiver:\u003c\/strong\u003e The .308 Winchester version uses Mossberg's short-action Patriot architecture, keeping the receiver appropriately proportioned for cartridges in the .308-length family.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e22-Inch Free-Floating Barrel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard Patriot Walnut rifles use a 22-inch barrel that is free-floated from the stock, reducing unwanted stock-to-barrel contact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eButton-Rifled Barrel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mossberg manufactures the Patriot barrel using button-rifling, providing consistent rifling geometry throughout the bore.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFluted Barrel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Longitudinal barrel fluting removes material while retaining a substantial sporting-rifle barrel

contact during normal transport and handling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1:10 Twist Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mossberg's .308 Winchester Patriot configurations use a 1-turn-in-10-inch rifling twist, a common specification for the calibre.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral-Fluted Bolt:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Patriot's bolt body incorporates distinctive spiral fluting together with an angled bolt handle and textured bolt knob.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLightning Bolt Action Trigger:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mossberg's patented LBA trigger is a two-stage-style safety-blade system with user-adjustable pull weight within the manufacturer's specified range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2-7lb Trigger Adjustment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mossberg specifies the LBA trigger as adjustable from approximately 2 to 7lb, allowing the trigger weight to be configured within its intended operating range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetachable Box Magazine:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Patriot uses a removable box magazine rather

twin-lug, push-feed machined-steel action. The design follows a conventional modern sporting-rifle layout, with the two primary locking lugs positioned at the front of the bolt and the cartridge fed from a detachable box magazine into the chamber as the bolt is closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMossberg pairs the action with a spiral-fluted bolt body and an ergonomically angled bolt handle. The fluted design reduces some surface area between the bolt and receiver while also giving the Patriot action its distinctive mechanical appearance. The straightforward two-lug layout retains the familiar operating characteristics expected from a conventional sporting bolt rifle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFree-Floating Barrel System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Patriot Walnut uses a \u003cstrong\u003e22-inch free-floating, button-rifled barrel\u003c\/strong\u003e. Free-floating means the barrel is intended to remain clear of direct stock contact along its working length, reducing the possibility of stock pressure altering barrel behaviour as environmental conditions or support pressure change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe barrel is longitudinally fluted and finished with a recessed muzzle crown. In .308 Winchester configurations, Mossberg uses a 1:10 twist rate, providing the standard rifling specification associated with its Patriot rifles in this chambering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLightning Bolt Action Trigger\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMossberg's \u003cstrong\u003eLightning Bolt Action trigger\u003c\/strong\u003e, or LBA, is one of the defining components of the Patriot series. The system incorporates a central safety blade within the trigger shoe and is adjustable through a manufacturer-specified range of approximately 2 to 7lb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe LBA system allows Mossberg to provide an adjustable sporting trigger as a standard component rather than requiring a separate aftermarket trigger assembly, while retaining an additional mechanical element within the trigger design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWalnut Sporting Configuration\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ePatriot Walnut\u003c\/strong\u003e combines the modern Patriot receiver and barrel assembly with a classic timber hunting-rifle stock. Mossberg uses textured stippling around the pistol grip and forend to provide additional grip while maintaining the appearance and proportions of a conventional walnut-stocked centrefire rifle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis combination of timber furniture, matte-finished metalwork, detachable magazine and modern adjustable trigger gives the Patriot Walnut a more traditional presentation than the synthetic-stocked versions of the same action while retaining essentially the same underlying mechanical platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSecond Hand Firearm\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs a pre-owned firearm, this \u003cstrong\u003eMossberg Patriot Walnut .308\u003c\/strong\u003e should be assessed as an individual rifle. Mechanical condition, bore condition, crown condition, stock integrity, magazine condition, trigger operation, serial markings and the specification of any included optic, mounts or accessories should be confirmed through the licensed dealer before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSecond Hand Firearm - Mossberg Patriot Walnut .308 Bolt Action Centrefire Rifle\u003c\/strong\u003e combines a traditional walnut sporting stock with Mossberg's modern twin-lug Patriot action, free-floating 22-inch barrel, detachable magazine and adjustable LBA trigger. It is a straightforward technical package centred around an established .308 Winchester short-action configuration and conventional sporting-rifle architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mossberg","offers":[{"title":"Calibre - .308 WIN \/ Walnut","offer_id":52150129688897,"sku":"SN-MPR0082970","price":649.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0851\/6475\/3217\/files\/SecondHandFirearm-MossbergPatriotWalnut.308BoltActionCentrefireRifle.png?v=1790554441","url":"https:\/\/venturehunting.com.au\/products\/second-hand-firearm-mossberg-patriot-walnut-308-bolt-action-centrefire-rifle","provider":"Venture Hunting","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
