Flex 62 Keygenguru

Whitetail deer are one of the most versatile species on earth, capable of adapting to everything from the northernmost woodlands to Southwestern deserts. Urban, suburban and, of course, rural populations of deer thrive as testament to the species' flexibility, and it's that flexibility to fit whatever situation you're handed that's built into Mossberg's new MVP FLEX bolt-action rifle. Mossberg recognized that hunters shoot better with a gun that fits, and that fitting a gun doesn't have to involve permanent modifications such as chopping off a buttstock or even so much as having a longer recoil pad fitted to the stock. Instead, Mossberg's designers came up with the 'FLEX' concept — a modular buttstock system that's not only quick-change, but also requires no tools and is only permanent until you want to change it again.

MVP stands for Mossberg Varmint Predator, so the first guns of that design were appropriately chambered in 5.56 and fed from detachable AR-15 magazines. The concept proved so popular that Mossberg upped the chambering to.30-caliber for big-game hunting and changed the magazine well dimensions to take detachable AR-10 magazines.

My experience with the new MVP FLEX took me from Arizona's desert near the Mexican border where I sighted-in the rifle, to the thick forests at the northern edge of Canada's Alberta Province for a spring bear hunt. The environmental extremes afforded the opportunity to fully use the FLEX concept by fitting the gun with a longer stock while sighting in wearing a long-sleeve T-shirt, and then easily and instantly shorten things before I left, so the gun handled the same even though I was bundled up for the cold North. Once the gun arrived, I mounted a Swarovski 1-6×24 Z6i scope on it, reasoning that the dense woods where I'd be hunting didn't offer very long shots, but any shot I had would probably be in fairly low light where the illuminated reticle is ideal. Mounting it was about as simple as it comes thanks to the one-piece Picatinny rail on the Mossberg that uses this most commonly available style of rings.

With this type of mount, all you really have to give much thought to is the height of the rings, and that's going to be dictated by the size of your objective bell. You want to mount the scope as low as possible without the objective actually touching the barrel so you can get a solid cheek weld on the stock. Even with low-mount rings, though, I had to lift my head a little to see through the scope properly when using the six-position AR-type stock. The MVP FLEX comes standard with that stock, and while it's natural looking on the AR and certainly provides the most versatility, I think it's going to take a little getting used to before hunters accept it on a bolt-action gun.

It didn't work for me, and I wasn't interested in tempting trouble trying to pass into Canada with a gun sporting a pistol grip and detachable magazine — legal or not — so I opted for a fixed stock. The 'Tool-less Locking System' (TLS) method of stock attachment is completely simple and locks up solid. There's a T-shaped, captive pin in the stock wrist that keeps the buttstock from sliding on or off of a star-shaped post.

The star shape keeps the stock from rotating. Changing stocks involves simply lifting the T-pin and giving it a quarter turn, then pulling the stock straight off. I swapped out the adjustable stock for a 12½-inch fixed stock and I was ready for the range, where I was pleased to see Hornady's 150-grain Superformance loads punch 1½-inch groups at 100 yards from the bench. More Stock Options Mossberg lists black synthetic TLS stocks with 12½-, 13½- and 14½-inch lengths of pull. There are also camo options and stocks with adjustable combs, plus three FLEX recoil pads in ¾-, 1¼- and 1½-inch thicknesses. The variety of combinations offers lengths of pull from 13¼ to 16 inches, and is as close as you can get to a custom fit without dropping a lot of dough on permanent gunsmithing. The recoil pads are also tool-less, and change out by simply pressing a recessed button and popping them on or off at will.
