The Mossberg Patriot has 3 lugs? I wasn't aware of that. Thought it was a standard two lug design.
I’ll have to double check my rifle I haven’t had it out of the safe in about a year but I believe the 375 Ruger bolt is a three lug bolt I’ll double check.

EDIT: I lied, the Mossberg Patriot 375 bolt is only two lugged, in fact it looks like the lug engagement area is less robust than that of the savage 338 LM 110 LRH. However, the receiver looks thicker.
