Key Features
- Adjustable Length of Pull (12-13 inches) – Why it matters: A proper fit means better cheek weld, more consistent shot placement, and less fatigue at the range. This stock adjusts easily without tools, so you can share the rifle between family members or let a growing shooter keep using it season after season.
- 20-inch Fluted Barrel – Why it matters: Fluting reduces weight without sacrificing barrel stiffness, which helps maintain accuracy during longer strings of fire. The shorter length keeps the overall rifle compact for easy handling in the field or at the bench.
- Factory-Mounted 3-9x40mm Scope – Why it matters: You don’t need to spend extra on a separate optic or worry about mounting it yourself. This scope is bore-sighted from Mossberg, so you’re ready to zero in and start shooting right away.
- Detachable 5-Round Magazine – Why it matters: Quick reloads and safe unloading are easier with a detachable box magazine. The 5+1 capacity gives you enough rounds for hunting or target practice without being overly bulky.
- 6.5 Creedmoor Chambering – Why it matters: This cartridge offers flat trajectory and mild recoil, making it ideal for new shooters learning long-range fundamentals. It’s also a favorite among hunters for deer and pronghorn out to 400 yards.
Who It's For
This rifle is built for youth shooters, women, or anyone with a smaller frame who wants a bolt action that fits them properly. It’s also a great option for a parent looking to share a single rifle with multiple kids as they grow. If you’ve struggled with full-size stocks that feel too long or too heavy, the Super Bantam’s adjustable stock and light weight (6.5 lbs) make it a practical choice for both range days and hunting trips.
Pros & Cons
Pros: Adjustable stock fits a wide range of shooters; 6.5 Creedmoor offers low recoil and excellent ballistics; scope included saves you money; fluted barrel keeps weight down; reliable Mossberg action.
Cons: The trigger, while serviceable, isn’t as crisp as an aftermarket unit like a Timney. Some shooters may want to upgrade it for precision work. Also, the Muddy Girl Wild camo pattern may not appeal to everyone – it’s a very specific look.
