The Winchester XPR SR 6.8 Western is a dedicated left-hand bolt rifle (brand part no. 535783299) built by Winchester around the hard-hitting 6.8 Western cartridge. The 22-inch barrel wears a durable Perma-Cote finish and is button-rifled with a recessed target crown, then free-floated inside a matte black composite stock so nothing touches the barrel to shift point of impact. Winchester’s MOA Trigger System breaks clean with zero take-up, creep, or overtravel, and a two-position thumb safety keeps operation simple in the field. It is built for left-handed hunters chasing elk, mule deer, and other big game who want a cartridge with flatter trajectory and heavier bullets without switching to a magnum.

Key Specifications

• A dedicated left-hand bolt and action, built specifically for left-handed shooters instead of a converted right-hand design.
• Chambered in 6.8 Western, a high-BC cartridge developed for flatter trajectories and harder-hitting long-range big-game performance.
• A 22-inch, button-rifled barrel with a recessed target crown that protects the rifling from dings during field use.
• A free-floated barrel inside the stock, which keeps point of impact consistent shot to shot.
• A durable Perma-Cote finish on the barrel and steel receiver that resists wear and the elements.
• Winchester’s MOA Trigger System, adjustable for a crisp pull with zero creep, take-up, or overtravel.
• A two-position thumb safety for fast, tactile on/off control without leaving the shooting position.
• A nickel-finished bolt slide that cycles smoothly and resists corrosion.
• A matte black composite stock that stands up to rough field conditions better than wood.
• A 3+1 round capacity that keeps the rifle’s overall balance trim for carrying through rough terrain.
