Savage axis replacement stock? - Hunt Talk
Dec 1, 2015 · I don't have an Axis, but purchased two Boyd's stocks for Marlin rifles. Had some minor barrel channel reaming on one and the other fit like it grew on there perfectly.

Ruger or Savage - Hunt Talk
Aug 30, 2022 · If you get a Savage get the Axis 2 and NOT the Axis 1 (unless you plan to replace the trigger immediately).

Savage Bolt Issue - Hunt Talk
Jul 21, 2016 · I don't own an axis, but on the 116 and 110s if that part of the bolt head is rotated it won't slide back into the receiver. There is a small guide machined into the part of the bolt head that rotates. That guide corosponds to a groove inside the receiver. The axis may not have that , I am assuming? Hope it's fixed.
Savage AXIS VS Ruger American - Hunt Talk
Nov 27, 2009 · I have an axis in .270. I did put a boyds stock on it though, from a bench rest its very accurate, the bolt lift and the flimsy stock from the factory are the only real downfalls, however for a cheap rifle its a wonderful shooter. I can't speak to the ruger as i've only handled one a couple of times.
howa VS savage - Hunt Talk
Dec 3, 2007 · The problem is I'm undecided on whether it will be the Savage Axis or the Howa w/Hogue stock. I know that the Axis is a decent firearm (my boy has one in .223 and it shoots nice tight groups) and is about $100 less than the Howa. However, I don't know much about the Howa and wondered if anyone here has one, and what they think of it.

Hogue Stocks - Hunt Talk
Dec 26, 2017 · I have a Savage 12fv varmint rifle with a heavy barrel and synthetic stock. The rifle is surprisingly accurate but the stock feels like a cheap toy gun. The front flexes and touches the barrel on one side. I've had a hard time finding a stock for this rifle because it's a Cabela's exclusive with a blind magazine.
What round does your Savage .308 like? - Hunt Talk
Oct 8, 2018 · I'm about to mount a new scope on my Savage Model 11 .308. With my old optics, I loaded Federal Trophy Copper 168 grain and they did fine but didn't blow me away either. Before I mount and zero my new scope, I want to decide which round to use. I'd love to hear from anyone with a similar rifle what copper round your rifle "likes" the best.

Boyd stocks - Hunt Talk
Mar 18, 2019 · This is my Savage Axis in 243 bought new in 2012. The original Axis came with a junk flimsy stock. I ordered this stock the summer before the 2020 fall hunting seasons. I believe it is the plains hunter. Great stock. I didn't glass or pillar bed the stock. I just bolted it on and made sure it still held zero, which it did.
