Lost a rear action screw on my savage axis. Are they the same screw as other models or where to get on or a set.

Do yourself a favor and upgrade to some Grade 8 1/4-28 1.5" cap screws. Will be 3/8" drive instead of 5/32" and feels more secure when torquing them down. Take it all the way and get some shorter ones for the front screw as well. I have swapped all the action screws out on my Savages for these...

Agreed. The upgrade is nice but they protrude from the bottom of the stock.

I have an extra. Message me.

Get a button head cap screw. Maybe it won’t protrude.

They are too wide

Use Allen head cap screws.

Use Allen head cap screws.

They stick out past the stock. See above post
