Mossberg Model 100 ATR
For those on a budget this year or hunters looking for a no-frills, get-the-job done rifle, Mossberg Model 100 ATR (All Terrain Rifle) may be just what the doctor ordered–a centerfire with a 3-9X scope aboard for approximately $450. And it’s proving popular.
The Mossberg ATR model 100 is available in both short action (.243 Winchester and .308 Winchester) and long action (.270 Winchester and .30-06).
Since I’m traditional, I ordered the Model 100 ATR in walnut. When the gun arrived, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the wood and finish. No, you don’t get an AA grade stock, but this one had a pleasing grain pattern of light and dark stripes on the butt.
In terms of physical size, I would call the stock rather full in all dimensions, something I like in a hunting rifle. There’s a tastefully executed cheekpiece, and the Model 100 ATR stock also has a bit of cast-off–something you see only on more costly rifles.
Description.
In terms of physical size, I would call the stock rather full in all dimensions, something I like in a hunting rifle. There’s a tastefully executed cheekpiece, and the stock also has a bit of cast-off–something you see only on more costly rifles. The Mossberg ATR model 100 pistol grip has a moderate sweep to it, and being an average male, it fit me well, as did the 13.5-inch length of pull.
The Mossberg Model 100 ATR stock comes with a plastic grip cap, sling swivel studs and checkering that included more than ample coverage on both the fore-end and pistol grip. Done in a conservative point pattern, all of the diamonds were sharp; the area included a border and machine cut after the satin smooth finish was applied.
