The .17 WSM is one of the most underrated varmint cartridges out there, pushing a 20 grain bullet around 3,000 fps, and the Winchester Xpert gives it a proper home. This combo takes the guesswork out of building a setup, pairing the bolt action Xpert with a bore-sighted Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 scope already mounted with rings. That means a quick zero at the range and you're chasing prairie dogs the same afternoon.
Winchester built this rifle around the Rimfire M.O.A. Trigger, a three-lever design borrowed from the Model 70 and XPR playbook that breaks clean with no creep, no take-up, and no overtravel. Behind that trigger sits an 18 inch button-rifled barrel with a semi-match Bentz-style chamber, a 1:9 twist, and a target crown. That combination punches well above what you'd expect at this level, and the little .17 WSM rewards it with tight groups way past typical rimfire distances. A hemispherical firing pin adds consistent ignition, which matters with rimfire ammo.
The molded polymer stock keeps the whole rifle at roughly 4.5 pounds, so it carries all day on a walk through the pasture without wearing you out. The extended bolt handle gives you extra leverage for fast follow-ups, the safety sits right at the rear of the receiver where your thumb finds it naturally, and the ambidextrous magazine release drops the 8-round rotary mag straight into your hand. Front and rear sling eyelets come standard, and if you ever want to run the rifle without glass, the ramped post front and adjustable rear sights have you covered.
The Crossfire II's 2-7x magnification range is a smart match for this cartridge. Keep it dialed low for close jackrabbits and crank it up when a ground squirrel pops up at 200 yards. For anyone wanting a flat-shooting, low-recoil rig for pests, predators, and range fun, this package covers a lot of ground with very little fuss.
Yes, the Crossfire II 2-7×32 comes mounted in rings and bore sighted from the factory. Bore sighting gets you on paper, but plan on a range session to fine tune your zero with the specific .17 WSM load you'll be shooting before heading afield.
No. The .17 WSM and .17 HMR are completely different cartridges with different case dimensions and pressures, and they are not interchangeable in either direction. The WSM runs a thicker case at higher pressure, which is why it delivers around 3,000 fps and a noticeably flatter trajectory than the HMR.
It's one of the best parts of the rifle. The Rimfire M.O.A. Trigger is a three-lever design based on the same concept found in Winchester's Model 70 and XPR centerfire rifles, giving you a break with no creep, no take-up, and no overtravel. For a lightweight rimfire, it punches well above its class.
The .17 WSM is a varmint and small game specialist. It shoots flat and hits hard enough for prairie dogs, ground squirrels, rabbits, and similar pests out to distances where most rimfires run out of steam, often 200 yards and beyond. Low recoil and mild report also make it a fun cartridge for steel and paper at the range.
