The Savage A17 solved a real engineering problem. The .17 HMR runs at pressures that a straight blowback semi-auto cannot safely handle, so Savage designed a delayed blowback action specifically for the cartridge, making the A17 one of the few semi-automatic .17 HMR rifles built the right way from the ground up.

This is the Target version with a 22-inch heavy barrel and a gray laminate stock, weighing enough to hold rock-steady off a bipod. Paired with the AccuTrigger and the .17 HMR's laser-flat trajectory, it is a superb rig for prairie dogs, ground squirrels, and small predator work.
