so I have been looking for a rifle in the 6.5cm.. tossed ideas in my head etc..
went to a gun show here local and found a Savage Axis with accutrigger in the Woodstock and its in 6.5cm..
i think i will be happy with it does come with a scope bushnell and ill change it within a month to a vortex..
does the woodstocks come with a boyds stock on them because the recoil pad says boyds..
and it has all the new stickers savage has on their guns...
i think i will be pleased with it

Awesome, Come back and tell us how well it shot. Look at Athlon scopes too. I was unimpressed early on but I received an education recently.

From what I have read, with enough speed even the 147grn eld-m are working. 140 is a safe bet.

Definitely let us know!
Agreed, look at Athlon scopes. I have the Argos on 2 of my guns and like it very much. Hard to beat for the price.
