The F-17 series is the world's first gas piston rimfire rifle. It shoots a 17 Winchester super magnum rimfire round that operates at 33000 PSI while producing velocities up to 3000 FPS. This design was created to be safer and more reliable since it uses a rotating locking bolt and piston design. The F-17 series is also exempt from many restrictions placed on centerfire rifles in states like California.
