Shot show???

[Russ77]

Any of you axis owners going to shot show in Vegas this year??

I saw they have a new rifle to compete with the Ruger precision rifle . The 10 BA stealth I think I'm gonna grab one looks really sweet

You should really visit the homepage more often.

I have not gone, but Mr. F's report didn't have much to get me excited.

Best news I heard is that the Axis is being chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor.

Now if the 24" sporter 280ai Axis would make the cut :-)

That is good news, though it would be better if we knew that included the HB. Better still if they had introduced the Axis II HB!

I am a lefty so I lose out on both those options. If Savage does chamber the 6.5 CM in a heavy, somebody here will yank the factory barrel and install a custom. I figure the take-off will show up here. I have been considering just getting a custom barrel for one of my existing Savages in a heavy sporter/light varmint contour to use as a hunting rifle. The older I get the less I enjoy recoil. This year I never had the .30-06 out of the safe. Not even to verify zero. My last barrel was a .250 Savage that replaced my .22-250 barrel to make a light deer rifle.
