Savage Axis 2 Features The Savage Axis 2 is built around the user-adjustable AccuTrigger which lets a shooter tune the pull to their own hand and shooting style rather than living with whatever the factory set and it does so without giving up the sear safety that keeps the rifle honest in the field. Thread-in headspacing locks the barrel to the action with repeatable precision one of the reasons the Axis platform has earned a reputation for shooting well above its price bracket. The barrel itself is button rifled and free floating so it never touches the forend and the point of impact does not wander as sling tension or a shooting rest loads the stock. For hunters who want tack-driving accuracy straight out of the box that combination of trigger headspacing and free-floated barrel is where the accuracy actually comes from. The redesigned bolt handle carries a sleeker more ergonomic shape that gives the hand something to grab and drive which matters most in rain in cold and with gloved fingers when a fast follow-up shot is on the line. A 2-position safety a steel frame and a steel trigger guard keep the controls and the core of the rifle rugged rather than cost-cut and the recoil pad takes the sting out of a full-power cartridge across a long day of sighting in. At 6.6 lbs and 42.5 overall the rifle sits in the sweet spot between a gun light enough to carry all day and one heavy enough to hold steady on a distant shot. For a left-handed hunter working out of a stand or covering country on foot the improved ergonomics of the Axis 2 are felt on every cycle of the bolt. The receiver is drilled and tapped and ships ready for a Weaver-style scope base so mounting glass is a straightforward job rather than a gunsmithing project. Sling attachment points let the rifle ride on a shoulder where it belongs on a long walk in a detachable box magazine makes loading and unloading quick and a cable trigger lock is included in the box for safe storage between seasons. The all-new redesigned Axis 2 was built to give hunters better out-of-the-box performance at the same affordable price and the left-hand models put that value in the hands of shooters the industry usually treats as an afterthought.
