The Savage Arms Axis XP Combo delivers precision hunting performance with an integrated scope package that eliminates guesswork for shooters seeking reliable accuracy straight from the box. This 270 Winchester rifle combines Savage's proven bolt-action reliability with practical features that perform consistently across hunting conditions.
What Makes This Different
The Axis XP stands apart from entry-level hunting rifles through its factory-mounted and bore-sighted 3-9x40mm scope, eliminating the need for separate optics purchases and mounting costs. The rifle features Savage's adjustable AccuTrigger system, allowing shooters to customize pull weight between 2.5-6 pounds for enhanced accuracy. Unlike basic hunting rifles with fixed triggers, this system adapts to individual shooting preferences while maintaining consistent performance.

Field performance centers on the 270 Winchester cartridge's proven ballistics, delivering flat trajectory and effective energy transfer on medium to large game at extended ranges. The 22-inch barrel length optimizes powder burn efficiency while maintaining manageable overall rifle length for hunting applications. Weather-resistant synthetic stock construction withstands temperature variations and moisture exposure common in hunting environments.
