Mossberg adds 7mm
PRC to Patriot Predator
Bolt-Action Series
MOSSBERG
Mossberg now offers the latest Hornady
Precision Rifle Cartridge, 7mm PRC, in its series
of Patriot Predator bolt-action rifles.
Designed to outperform existing 7mm
cartridges in a standard long-action
rifle, the 7mm PRC is a match-grade
cartridge that delivers consistent velocity and
repeatable accuracy. The 7mm PRC is the
perfect “match” for Mossberg’s purpose-built,
suppressor-ready Patriot Predator platform.
Two synthetic-stocked models are available
with 24-inch barrel length and 1:8 twist rate
to maximize the performance of the 7mm
PRC cartridge.
The Patriot Predator bolt-action is based
on Mossberg’s proven twin-lug push-feed
machined-steel action, fed from a flush
polymer magazine. The free-floating, carbon
steel barrel is threaded (5/8”-24 threads
per inch) for ease of adding a suppressor or
muzzle brake; includes a protective thread
cap; has a 11-degree match crown; and
is fluted. For the addition of optics, the
Patriot Predator is equipped with a receiver
mounted Picatinny rail. Patriot rifles feature
Mossberg’s patented LBA (Lightning Bolt
Action) user-adjustable trigger with a two
to seven-pound range of adjustment for
consistent shot placement. Rounding out
this full-featured rifle is an oversized bolt
handle; spiral-fluted bolt; and sling swivel
studs.
Stock options include a Flat Dark Earth
stock with matte blue metal finish (28170)
and TrueTimber Strata camouflaged
stock with complementing Patriot Brown
Cerakote metal finish (28171).
