For years, the knock on semi-auto 17 HMR rifles was simple: the cartridge runs too hot for a standard blowback action. Savage solved that problem with the A17, the first semi-automatic rimfire engineered from the ground up for 17 HMR. Its delayed-blowback action keeps the bolt locked just long enough to handle magnum rimfire pressures safely, then cycles fast so your follow-up shot is ready before that second prairie dog knows what happened. This Sporter version dresses the platform up with a gray wood laminate stock that looks sharp at the range and shrugs off weather better than most people expect from wood.
The 22 inch button-rifled carbon steel barrel wears a 1:9 twist that stabilizes 17 grain and 20 grain loads nicely, and the flat-shooting HMR cartridge does the rest out to 150 yards and beyond. Savage's user-adjustable AccuTrigger is the real gem here. You can dial the pull down to a crisp, light break without a trip to the gunsmith, which makes a noticeable difference when you're threading a shot on a ground squirrel at distance. A hard chrome bolt with an oversized handle and a case-hardened receiver round out a build that feels a step above typical rimfire fare.
A 10-round detachable rotary magazine sits flush and feeds reliably, keeping the trim lines of the sporter stock intact. There are no iron sights on this rifle, and that's by design. The receiver is drilled and tapped, so mount the scope of your choice and take advantage of everything the 17 HMR can do. Sling swivel studs come standard for hauling it across the back forty.
At around 5.6 pounds bare, the A17 Sporter carries easily on long walks between dens and burrows, but it has enough barrel to settle in steady off a rest. Whether your weekends lean toward pest control, small game, or just ringing steel with cheap-to-feed magnum rimfire, this one covers all three without breaking a sweat.
No, this model ships without iron sights or an optic. The receiver comes drilled and tapped, so you can mount scope bases and the glass of your choice. Given how flat the 17 HMR shoots, a quality scope is the way to get the most out of this rifle.
The A17 uses a delayed-blowback action that Savage designed specifically for magnum rimfire pressures. The bolt stays locked slightly longer than a standard blowback design before cycling, which lets it run 17 HMR safely and reliably. It was the first semi-auto rimfire purpose-built for this cartridge.
Yes. The A17 comes with Savage's AccuTrigger, which is user-adjustable with the included tool and no gunsmith required. Most owners dial it down for a lighter, crisper break that really helps with precision work on small targets.
The 1:9 twist barrel handles standard 17 grain and 20 grain 17 HMR loads well. CCI even developed its A17 load specifically for this rifle, running a bit faster than typical 17 HMR ammo, and it tends to cycle and group nicely. It's worth trying a few brands to see what your particular barrel prefers.
