It comes ready to shoot with a Simmons 3-9x40WA 1" Duplex scope installed on factory two-piece bases and includes a flush-fit 10-round rotary magazine.

The A17's mechanically delayed-blowback action was purpose-built for .17 HMR, giving this rimfire semi-auto a design advantage tailored to the cartridge. This model's recognition as NRA Publications' 2016 "Rifle of the Year" underscores its impact and performance in its category.
Its core build features a hard-chrome bolt and a case-hardened receiver design for durability. The detachable flush-fit rotary magazine provides 10+1 capacity. Controls are straightforward with a cross-bolt safety, and the user-adjustable AccuTrigger with a safety blade allows fine-tuning to preference.
The 22-inch blued carbon steel barrel is button-rifled with a sporter profile and a 1:9 RH twist, set up for consistent .17 HMR performance. This rifle is configured without iron sights and uses factory two-piece scope bases.
The black synthetic stock offers a straight comb, textured grip panels, and a solid rubber buttpad, along with sling swivel studs for carry options. Length of pull is 14.0 inches. The rifle is topped with a Simmons 3-9x40WA 1" Duplex scope mounted in rings on the factory bases, giving a clear, practical sighting setup from the start.
