Savage Axis/Axis II Magazine, 6mm ARC, 4-Round, Matte Black This factory Savage Arms magazine holds 4 rounds of 6mm ARC and is made for Savage Axis/Axis II firearms. A spare magazine is one of the most useful things you can own for any repeating firearm, whether you want to load up before a range session, keep a backup in the field or replace one that has worn out after years of use. Why Buy It 4-round capacityChambered for 6mm ARCMade for Savage Axis/Axis II firearmsMatte Black finishFactory Savage Arms part Fit and Compatibility Savage builds many of its rifles around model-specific magazines, and the right fit depends on both the model and the cartridge. This magazine is made for Savage Axis/Axis II firearms chambered in 6mm ARC. Before you order, check the model and caliber stamped on your firearm and compare them with the title of this listing. If you are not sure which magazine your firearm uses, the owner manual lists the correct part, or you can contact us with the model and serial number details and we will help you match it. Why Carry a Spare Magazine Having a second or third magazine loaded and ready means less time thumbing rounds at the bench and more time shooting. In the field, a spare lets you keep a follow-up option in a pocket or pouch without carrying loose ammunition. Spares are also inexpensive insurance: magazines are small and easy to misplace, and feed lips and springs eventually wear, so a fresh factory magazine can restore reliable feeding in a firearm that has started to hang up. Loading and Use Load rounds one at a time, pressing each cartridge fully to the rear so the rims or shoulders stack evenly. Do not exceed the 4-round capacity, and do not force a cartridge if it resists. Insert the magazine until it locks, then give it a light tug to make sure it is seated before you chamber a round. If you notice failures to feed, check that the ammunition matches the caliber of the magazine and that the magazine is clean and fully seated. Care and Maintenance Keep magazines clean and dry. Every so often, disassemble the magazine as shown in the owner manual, wipe the body, spring and follower with a clean cloth, and remove any grit or powder residue. Avoid heavy oil inside the magazine, which attracts dirt; a very light film on metal parts is plenty. Store magazines unloaded for long periods when practical, and replace any magazine with cracked feed lips, a bent body or a weak spring. Storage and Transport Store spare magazines in a dry place, away from solvents and extreme heat. A simple magazine pouch or a pocket in your range bag keeps them organized and protects the feed lips from damage. When you travel to the range or the field, keep loaded magazines separate from the firearm where the law requires it, and always check local rules on transporting loaded magazines. Getting the Most From Your Savage A firearm only runs as well as its magazine. If you shoot often, rotate between two or three magazines so wear is spread across them, and mark each one with a small number so you can spot a magazine that causes problems. Replacing a tired magazine with a fresh factory one is often the fastest fix for feeding issues, and it keeps your firearm running the way it did when it was new.
