The Winchester XPR Compact 6.8 Western is a compact bolt-action rifle chambered in 6.8 Western with a 22-inch barrel and a 13-inch length of pull (brand part no. 535720299). Winchester sizes the XPR down with a shorter length of pull and a gray Perma-Cote finish. The M.O.A. Trigger System, a nickel Teflon-coated bolt and a 3-round detachable box magazine round out the package. It suits younger or smaller-framed shooters and hunters who want a lighter carry.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is 6.8 Western, fed through a short action built for that cartridge.
• The barrel measures 22 inches with a sporter contour, which sets the balance of the rifle.
• The detachable box magazine holds 3 rounds, and a second magazine makes reloading a quick swap.
• The barrel and receiver carry a gray Perma-Cote finish, a tough non-reflective coating.
• The stock is a matte black composite stock with textured grip panels, built for grip in wet conditions.
• The rifling twist is 1-in-8-inch, the rate the 6.8 Western barrel is cut to.
• The receiver is drilled and tapped, so a scope mounts with only rings and bases added.
• Overall length is 41 1/4 inches, which helps when judging fit for a case or a blind.
• The rifle weighs 7 pounds, a figure to weigh against how far it will be carried.
• Length of pull is 13 inches, the distance from trigger to buttpad.
