Bolt-action rifles remain the benchmark for repeatable accuracy, controllable recoil, and simple mechanical reliability—qualities valued by defensive marksmen and precision shooters alike. For left-handed shooters who demand those traits in a field-ready package, there are very few options that balance performance, ergonomics, and value.

SAVAGE ARMS AXIS 2 LH [FDE] is a left-handed bolt-action chambered in .25-06 Remington with a 22-inch barrel and FDE stock color. The redesigned AXIS 2 brings improved ergonomics and out-of-the-box accuracy, featuring the user-adjustable AccuTrigger and thread-in headspacing that help deliver consistent, tack-driving groups. The updated ergonomic bolt handle improves control in adverse conditions, and one 4-round magazine is included. Shop this product

Design and features tactical shooters will appreciate

The AccuTrigger lets operators dial in a crisp, safe trigger pull without gunsmithing, which directly improves first-shot and follow-up precision. Thread-in headspacing maintains consistent cartridge alignment and headspace control across changing barrel and chamber conditions—important when reliability and repeatable ballistics matter. The 22-inch barrel balances velocity and maneuverability for mid-range engagements.

Bolt and ergonomics

The updated bolt handle is sculpted to provide positive purchase in wet or gloved hands. For left-handed operators, the dedicated left-bolt throw and control layout reduce manipulation time and improve sight-to-shot workflow.

Caliber and ballistics

The .25-06 Remington is a flat-shooting, mid-power cartridge suited for precision work and medium-game applications, offering a balance of velocity and manageable recoil. In a 22-inch barrel, expect efficient powder burn and good ballistic performance for engagements inside typical tactical ranges.
