Design and Ergonomics

The AXIS 2 LH [FDE] is a left-handed platform built around practical ergonomics. The 22-inch barrel paired with an FDE synthetic stock reduces weight while maintaining a stable sight radius and muzzle velocity. The revised bolt handle improves purchase and control when cycling rounds in wet or cold environments — a small but important upgrade for field use.

Trigger, Headspacing, and Magazine

The AccuTrigger system remains one of Savage’s hallmark features: easily user-adjustable to dial in trigger pull without compromising safety. Thread-in headspacing adds a layer of factory-level consistency that supports repeatable accuracy shot after shot. The rifle ships with one 4-round magazine, covering hunting and precision practice without excess bulk.

Why 6.5mm Creedmoor?

Chambered in 6.5mm Creedmoor, this model gives shooters a flat trajectory, high ballistic coefficient options, and manageable recoil — ideal for mid- to long-range precision and hunting applications. The 22-inch barrel is a balanced choice to extract velocity while remaining maneuverable in field scenarios. For Bolt Action enthusiasts looking for a dedicated left-handed option from Savage Arms, this model stands out in its class. View product details and pricing
