I am up in the state of washington this week, dropped into Cabela's to get some scope mounts.
I was surprised to see a Savage Axis in 30-06 with all stainless action and barrel for only $329, said it was a Gen II Axis.
How good is this Axis?? I wanted a stainless action, ended up getting a 16 last week. Don't remember seeing the good trigger but I was looking to immediately dump the barrel and put a custom 6.8 barrel on.
The tought I had was this would make a great starting hunting gun, the Axis gen II in stainless with a 17 to 20 inch stainless Striker barrel in 6.8 SPC II would be accurate with zero kick and under $550.
My grandson already got my Ruger 10/22, now he wants to hunt and there is no way he is going to get my model 16 when I get the match grade 6.8 barrel.
