what action do i have?

[ohihunter2014]

asking for a friend. He has an axis 223rem heavy barrel and wants to order a boyds stock with custom stuff so this has to be right. In boyds heavy barrel options only short action is listed. from what I have gathered all axis rifles are long action so why is boyds listing short action for heavy barrels?

what action does he have for a 223rem if ordering a boyds stock?

All axis actions are the same , it has to do with the plastic on the bottom
he needs to order a short actin stock

Drybean is right. Your friend has a "short action" axis.

The only difference in the stock is the trigger guard is larger to hold the smaller magazine. So Boyd's short action is the right one.

+1, for the money, Boyd's are good stocks.
