Snow Testing

 

The hunt took place mostly on snowy mountainsides, where I slipped and fell once. Luckily, falling in shin-deep snow doesn’t hurt much and the Patriot survived nicely. Some snow entered the action around the bolt, but the detachable magazine allowed a quick clean-out, and the fluted bolt still slid easily.

On the last morning of the hunt I took a mid-sized mule deer buck and got a brief chance at an elk toward evening, right after my hunting partner, fellow writer John Haviland, shot a 4×4 raghorn across a canyon. At John’s shot, a 5×5 bull we hadn’t seen trotted into an opening and I was just settling the reticle on its chest when John shot his bull again — whereupon “mine” disappeared into the nearby timber.

After returning home I became curious about what the rifle might weigh with a lighter scope and rings. The Patriot comes with “Weaver Style” bases installed, the front base having two grooves an inch apart for mounting flexibility. After trying various scopes and rings I ended up using a 6×38 Weaver K6 in Burris Zee rings, which, like the Patriot rifle are very affordable and practical. This dropped the rifle’s weight to 7 lbs., 3 oz., placing it on the upper edge of modern “mountain” rifles. After this work I liked the Patriot so much I now own it — my collection of .308s had a hole the 21st Century Semi-Classic Affordable rifle fills perfectly!
