Frequently Asked Questions
Savage A17 .17 HMR Rifles for sale

Is the Savage A17 any good?

The Savage A17 is well-regarded for a semi-auto rimfire. Owners report strong reliability and accuracy with .17 HMR, making it effective on small game and varmints. Street price runs around $450–$550. Minor complaints involve plastic components, but feeding and extraction problems are uncommon.

What is a savage A17?

Savage A17 is a semi-automatic rimfire rifle chambered in .17 HMR. It uses a delayed-blowback action with a hard chrome bolt, feeds from a 10-round rotary magazine, and includes Savage's adjustable AccuTrigger. It is designed for small-game and varmint hunting.

What ammo is best for Savage A17?

CCI A17 ammunition performs best in the Savage A17, delivering roughly 100 fps faster velocity than standard .17 HMR loads. Owners report tight 1–1.2 inch groups at 100 yards. Hornady and Winchester .17 HMR also work well, though individual rifles vary, so testing multiple brands is worthwhile.

Where is the Savage A17 made?

The Savage A17 is manufactured at Savage's facility in Lakefield, Ontario, Canada. Some production has also taken place at its Westfield, Massachusetts plant.

Why is the A17 so cheap?

The Savage A17 typically sells for $370–$690. Its rimfire .17 HMR ammunition costs less than centerfire rounds, and the rifle's straightforward blowback action requires fewer complex components to manufacture, keeping production costs—and therefore retail prices—relatively low.

Is a 17 HMR more powerful than a 22?

Yes. The .17 HMR generates roughly double the muzzle velocity of .22 LR, around 2,500 fps versus 1,200 fps, delivering approximately 240 foot-pounds of energy compared to 120. Against .22 Magnum, the .17 HMR maintains superior energy beyond 150 yards despite its smaller bullet diameter.

Is .17 HMR enough for coyotes?

.17 HMR can kill coyotes only inside 40 yards with precise shot placement, and even then it is marginal for ethical kills. It lacks the energy for consistent, humane kills. Most hunters prefer .223 or .22-250 for better stopping power and longer effective range.

How much does a 17 HMR drop at 200 yards?

At 200 yards, a .17 HMR drops approximately 8 to 11 inches when zeroed at 100 yards. Exact drop varies by load—Hornady's 17-grain V-MAX drops around 10.5 inches, while lighter or faster loads may drop closer to 8 inches due to differences in velocity and ballistic coefficient.
