The Winchester XPR Hunter Compact 6.5 Creedmoor Rifle (Winchester part no. 535720289) shrinks Winchester’s popular XPR platform down to a 13-inch length of pull, making it a genuine youth and compact-frame option chambered in the increasingly popular 6.5 Creedmoor. Built by Winchester, it pairs a 20-inch barrel finished in gray Perma-Cote with a matte black composite stock for a rifle that looks as good as it shoots. The shortened length of pull and roughly 6-pound, 12-ounce weight make it easier for a smaller-framed or younger shooter to mount and control than a full-size hunting rifle. A factory-set MOA trigger system delivers a clean, repeatable break, and the Inflex Technology recoil pad softens the 6.5 Creedmoor’s recoil for a more comfortable shooting experience. It is a practical choice for a first deer rifle or a compact truck gun for a smaller-statured hunter.
