Winchester Repeating Arms 5252141003 Xpert Sporter SR Full Size 21 Sharp 10+1 16.50" Matte Black Threaded Sporter Barrel, Drilled & Tapped Matte Black Steel Receiver, Fixed Satin Walnut Stock

The Winchester Xpert Sporter SR in 21 Sharp is a compact bolt-action rimfire built for shooters who want genuine precision without unnecessary weight. Chambered in the newer 21 Sharp cartridge, this rifle delivers the accuracy and handling of Winchester's proven Xpert line in a lightweight, maneuverable platform perfect for small-game hunting, target work, and introducing shooters to quality firearms. The 16.50" barrel is button-rifled and features a target crown for consistent accuracy, while the threaded muzzle (1/2 x 28 TPI) accepts a suppressor or the included knurled thread protector—making it a great choice for backcountry or property shooting where quiet matters.

The heart of the Xpert is its Rimfire M.O.A. Trigger, a three-lever adjustable unit designed to break clean and repeatably. You get a drilled-and-tapped receiver ready for riflescopes or other optics mounts, plus backup iron sights—a fully-adjustable rear and ramped post front—so you're never left without aiming capability. The satin walnut stock features traditional checkering for grip and aesthetics, and the extended bolt handle makes fast, smooth cycling natural and intuitive.

Magazine duty is handled by one included 10-round rotary magazine, but the rifle also accepts aftermarket 10/22-style magazines for 21 Sharp and 22 LR ammunition, giving you flexibility and redundancy in the field. Ambidextrous magazine release (via side-mounted rails or release tab) works for both left and right-hand shooters. It's a no-fuss, honest rimfire built to shoot straight and last through seasons of use.
