When Savage Arms announced its all-new Axis II lineup of bolt-action hunting guns, we knew we just had to get our hands on one for testing. Already famous for its world-class accuracy and down-home price tag, the original Axis was (and remains) a big favorite among hunters. Now, these budget-friendly rifles come complete with luxury features like Savage's famous AccuTrigger, an updated bolt handle and plenty more.
While these beautiful bolt guns can be used for target shooting, what they were created for is hunting. That's why our friends at American Hunter chose to highlight this rifle for their weekly "Sunday Gunday" feature. Whether you're looking for a left-hand model, a compact model or just a tackdriving bolt gun, Savage has an AXIS for you. They're available now, in plenty of time for the 2024 hunting season. Best of all? These unbelievably accurate Savage rifles come in at $480-$689 with an included, factory-mounted, boresighted scope! SavageArms.com.
