Bolt-action rifles remain the go-to platform for hunters and precision shooters who demand repeatable accuracy, solid ergonomics, and straightforward reliability in the field. A modern entry that balances factory-ready features with value can change how you approach varmint work and medium-range hunting without stretching the budget.

SAVAGE ARMS AXIS 2 XP [ODG] is the redesigned AXIS 2 XP offering improved out-of-the-box performance with upgraded ergonomics while keeping affordability intact.

The rifle ships chambered in .22-250 Remington, a high-velocity cartridge prized for its flat trajectory and terminal performance on varmints and medium-sized game at extended ranges. Key features include a user-adjustable AccuTrigger for a crisp, safe trigger pull, thread-in headspacing that enhances consistency, and a factory-mounted 3-9×40 scope with fully multi-coated lenses and tool-less windage and elevation adjustments.

Design and Ergonomics

The ODG polymer stock on SAVAGE ARMS AXIS 2 XP [ODG] offers a modern aesthetic and weather-resistant durability. The updated bolt handle is sleeker and more ergonomic, improving control during rapid cycling and in adverse conditions like rain or cold. The rifle’s black finish paired with ODG provides a low-visibility profile suited to hunting environments.

Accuracy Features and Practical Performance

Factory features are aimed at producing “tack-driving” groups: the AccuTrigger allows you to dial a comfortable pull weight without compromising safety, while thread-in headspacing ensures consistent cartridge alignment and reliable ignition. The included 3-9×40 scope is boresighted at the factory and saves time at the range; its fully multi-coated lenses improve light transmission for clearer sight pictures at dawn and dusk. The rifle ships with a single 4‑round magazine and carries a street price of $524.99, offering strong value for hunters seeking a ready-to-hunt package. View product details and pricing.
