The Savage Axis II XP Combo in FDE delivers precision shooting capabilities in a compact platform designed for hunters who demand accuracy without excess weight. This 6.5 Creedmoor rifle combines Savage's proven action with a factory-mounted scope package, eliminating the guesswork of optic selection and mounting.
What Makes This Different
The Axis II improves on the original with a better trigger, refined bolt operation, and enhanced ergonomics. The compact 20-inch barrel maintains ballistic performance while reducing overall length by 4 inches compared to standard hunting rifles. Factory bore-sighting ensures the included 3-9x40mm scope is ready for final zeroing straight from the box.
Key Features
- 6.5 Creedmoor chambering delivers flat trajectory and excellent long-range performance
- 20-inch button-rifled carbon steel barrel with matte finish
- AccuTrigger system adjustable from 2.5 to 6 pounds
- Detachable 4-round box magazine for quick reloading
- Synthetic stock in Flat Dark Earth finish with textured grip surfaces
- Factory-mounted and bore-sighted 3-9x40mm scope with duplex reticle
- Drilled and tapped receiver accepts standard scope mounts
Field performance centers on the 6.5 Creedmoor's ability to maintain velocity and accuracy at extended ranges. The cartridge's high ballistic coefficient bullets resist wind drift better than traditional hunting rounds. The compact configuration makes this rifle ideal for blind hunting, tree stand use, and situations where maneuverability matters more than maximum barrel length.
