Rossi RB17 17 HMR Bolt-Action Rifle with Black Synthetic Stock (Cosmetic Blemishes)Overview
The Rossi RB17 17 HMR Bolt-Action Rifle with Black Synthetic Stock (Cosmetic Blemishes) delivers reliable rimfire performance at a price point that reflects minor handling marks rather than functional compromise. This bolt-action platform chambers the high-velocity .17 HMR cartridge, offering flat trajectories and tight groups for varmint control and target shooting. Rossi manufactures this model with a black synthetic stock designed to withstand field conditions while keeping weight manageable. The cosmetic blemishes noted on this SKU are strictly surface-level, often appearing as light scuffs or storage wear on the stock or metal finish. These imperfections do not affect bore integrity, action function, or accuracy. For shooters seeking an affordable entry into the .17 HMR platform without paying full retail for pristine aesthetics, the Rossi RB17 17 HMR Bolt-Action Rifle with Black Synthetic Stock (Cosmetic Blemishes) provides a practical solution.
Features & Specs
The Rossi RB17 operates on a traditional bolt-action system with a manual safety and a detachable box magazine. The .17 HMR chambering produces muzzle velocities exceeding 2,500 feet per second, making it effective for small game and precision target work. The black synthetic stock features a molded checkering pattern for grip security, while the blued barrel and receiver offer corrosion resistance consistent with Rossi’s manufacturing standards. The rifle includes adjustable fiber optic sights and a receiver drilled and tapped for scope mounting. Trigger pull is factory-set for a clean break without excessive creep. Magazine capacity varies by state compliance, typically holding five or more rounds. Overall length remains compact for easy transport.
