The SAVAGE AXIS delivers practical accuracy and solid value for shooters who want a ready-to-use bolt action rifle for hunting and range work. Its modern lines and shooter-focused ergonomics make it a reliable option for newcomers and experienced users who prioritize consistency and straightforward setup.

SAVAGE AXIS

Key features and build details

The SAVAGE AXIS features a carbon steel barrel and a drilled and tapped receiver, which means mounting optics is simple and repeatable. The rifle’s modern design includes sleek contours, recoil pad vents, and a textured, easy-to-control grip that aids follow-up shots and handling in the field. Factory-fitted bolt internals provide silky-smooth bolt operation straight out of the box.

XP model specifics

This XP model ships with a Mossy Oak BreakUp Country synthetic stock and a 22 blued carbon steel barrel. It arrives bore-sighted with a 39x40mm Weaver scope, so the rifle is ready for first-day hunting or range use without immediate optic setup. The drilled and tapped receiver complements the included scope, but its straightforward interface also accommodates upgraded glass if you choose to customize later.

Performance and practical applications

Expect steady on-target performance from the carbon steel barrel and consistent feeding from the bolt-action system. The textured grip and recoil pad vents help manage recoil and improve shooter confidence during extended sessions. For hunters who value a low-fuss rifle that performs reliably in woods or on the prairie, this configuration is a sensible, cost-effective choice at a retail price of $455.99.

Optics and mounting

Because the receiver is drilled and tapped and the rifle includes a factory-mounted Weaver optic, you can begin shooting immediately or swap to a preferred scope using common Weaver or Picatinny mounts. The pre-boresighted 39x40mm Weaver simplifies zeroing at the range.
