Hardware: Mossberg MVP Scout
There are essentially three definitions of the scout rifle. First, there’s Col. Jeff Cooper’s definition, which is largely credited for setting the parameters of such a firearm. The popular definition, meanwhile, is any bolt-action rifle with an extended-eye-relief scope. And finally, there’s the definition(s) conjured by everyone else. The Mossberg MVP Scout clearly meets the last two.
Hunting with Scout Rifles
Today we’re seeing renewed interest in scout rifles. Steyr, Mossberg, Ruger, and Savage all offer commercial interpretations of the scout. But, are these modern renditions of Cooper’s general-purpose carbine suitable for big game hunting?
