Savage built the Axis platform to be the honest working deer rifle, and the Axis 2 refines it with the user-adjustable AccuTrigger that made Savage famous. This one is chambered in .243 Winchester with a compact 20-inch threaded barrel, a combination that suits a suppressor or brake and handles beautifully in timber or from a blind. The .243 is a genuine dual-purpose round, mild enough for younger or recoil-sensitive hunters and plenty for whitetail, antelope and varmints alike. Button-rifled barrel, detachable box magazine and a synthetic stock keep it light and weatherproof.
