- Savage Arms Introduces the A17 Semi-automatic Rifle in 17 HMR
The new A17 semi-auto rifle from Savage Arms is chambered for the 17 HMR cartridge and is currently available from distributors. MSRP is $465.
The A17, Stock Number 47001, has a delayed-blowback action, hard chrome bolt, case-hardened receiver, and 10-round detachable rotary magazine.
The AccuTrigger is also user-adjustable, and we’ve praised that functionality several times in Gun Tests magazine.
Weight for A17 is 5.4 pounds. Overall Length is 42 inches.
The button-rifled 22-inch carbon-steel barrel has a one-in-nine twist rate.
So why can’t that old autoloader you’ve got fire a modern rimfire cartridge like the 17 HMR? Here’s an explanation of how the new A17 action differs from a standard autoloading design. - Sport
I have one of these rifles, it's great! Accurate and reliable. Fun to shoot, a lot better than my 22lr.
dont you just hate it when the intro is loud so you lower the volume then you cant hear the voice, just to have the outro rape your ear drums? no? just me?
I've subscribed to GUN TESTS magazine for many years in part because of the credibility they gain through their policy of no paid advertisements. Has there been a change?
beautiful rifle
Well gezz! Now I really want that rifle!
Great video..now I know not to wait for a conversation unit for my 22 rifles or hand guns...you did a great job explaining how it works!
He did not make the whole video. He used someone else's footage.

just got one love it
They took Kalb's 50 cal design, made it smaller and flipped upside down. Kalb's a genius, totally underappreciated. Patent 5,834,678.
Hm. Never got popular, though, right?
wish we could get one in the UK
Thanks
Dang I love firearms engineering
I love my A17
Well that was educational..... Wasn't expecting such high quality, well produced video.
That's because he did not make the whole video. He used someone else's footage.

Great!
Hello friend, I want to buy one of these, do you send it to Brazil?
Awesome video.
Good job mate 💥🔫👍
Yes I did, yes I did
If you don’t keep this rifle clean I see reliability issues in the future.
it sounds like the delay lug and where it locks into place, can fail after awhile with use.
Hello, comment from the past. Yes, more moving parts, more maintenance. Failure to do so results in malfunction.
@@racexine If a lug fails, it's not because of a maintenance issue. That'd be metal fatigue.
Why only 10 rounds? Are there going to be aftermarket drums?
Tommy Nightmare I'm late. BUT there is a good 25 round mag. It's only aftermarket tho
I have a 17 HMR bolt action and I'm happy with it, I don't need a semi-auto.
Now....put this on a semi auto pistol
Simple. Easy. Example: Excel MP17. You don't need anything but blowback for .17 HMR. Thing is... .17 HMR is no big woo; it's a ton more expensive than .22LR and while it's very flat shooting in dead-still air, it's EXTREMELY sensitive to breezes and grass and anything else. Impact energy is almost exactly identical to .22LR, so you've bought nearly nothing for all that money. Might as well pick up a cheap .22 rifle from WalMart.
old mans got on, pretty bitchen varmint gun
is it too much to ask for you guys to make this rifle into a pistol about the size of a Glock 42 or 26 . It would sure be a great killer for the argument of using .22 LR as a personal protection round.
Excel MP17.
Just got my rotary clip mag in the mail and the clip won't stay in the gun...
Try calling it a "magazine" instead of a clip. Maybe it'll stay then. I wouldn't stay with someone who repeatedly called me the wrong name, either.
Still a lot of noobs out there that still don't know the difference between a magazine and a clip
I bought an A17 and as with all new firearms I just purchased I cleaned the weapon , took it out to try it and I had a very disappointing out come. the rifle kept jamming and the clip kept malfunctioning. I called savage arms customer service number, and was told to send the rifle back to them. they did fix the problem. it didn't take them very long to return the rifle back to b me. It functions correctly now. I was disappointed with it not working out of the box. Savage arms didn't send a little something for the hassle and disappointment, they did pay for the shipping, guess that was what they thought that was enough. it's going to be hard to purchase a other Savage firearm in the future, as I'm gun shy now.
Classic Savage arms (pre 1980) were great guns. Post 1980 are crap.
I have a savage model 16 .223 and it jams if I use hollow points
Magazine....magazine for shit sake!!! By definition, a magazine has its own spring and follower, a clip is a device that assists in loading a magazine! The Garand uses an 8 round clip! Razumeš?
17 h. are too expensive compared to .22
Pantharen my pop killed coyotes with a savage 24 with 22lr and stingers and 36g hp at 75 to almost 150 he has ranch but hes old school shot i cant shoot as steady hand as him.
@@KrazyMitchAdventures
Get a 223 for the same price.
Trust me u are not gonna miss a shot with a 17 hmr caliber unless u want to😉
@@KrazyMitchAdventures Same impact energy at 100 yards... and you get a better blood channel with the .22LR hollowpoint than you can with the .17 HMR.
Soo expensive
@Kenny Reilly It'd help a lot if it cost $150. Then you could afford a box of ammo for it, too. Maybe. .17 HMR cartridges are EXPENSIVE.... plus hard to find.
Way too expensive
Hype. The .22LR has a max chamber pressure of 24,000 psi. The .17 HMR's max chamber pressure is only 26,000 psi, an increase of slightly more than 8%. Not nearly enough to warrant a different action. Straight blowback is perfectly well suited for .17 HMR provided that the bolt is heavy enough.
I have a .40 S&W blowback that runs perfectly well... and that's good for 35,000 psi, far more than the .17 HMR.
Someone doesn't know what they're talking about.
Then why did remington recalled their .17 semiautos after it blowed up on people's faces
All I see is a big ugly bolt handle
te a17 is a pice of shit i tested one and it wouldn't cycle
