This is my Axis in .308 bench rested at 35 yards 4 rounds, bench rested with Simmons Pro Sport cheap scope. Groups are deer accurate. Winchester Super X white box 150 grain just sighting in. This is in the plastic stock.

This is in the Boyds stock, bench rested at 65 yards, again, sighting in. Everything is the same but the stock. The 1st shot was high and left again, 2nd and third making sure it wasn't me flinching. 4th shot, adjusted just a hair, and getting there.
But look how tight that 2nd and 3rd rounds were together at 65 yards in this stock. Measured less than 1/4 inch at 65 yards on the bench. It really seems to tighten the groups up a little.
I'm going to tweak this budget setup tomorrow and I know 65 yards is not much to most people, but that is very promising for a bubbafied kitchen setup. I will post results after me and the boy get out and get a doe for his youth season :).
I hope to have my classic/nutmeg tues
I have to say, these are the low-buck briefings I love,
Pics, results, perfect
My imagination conjured up quite an image, sitting @ your kitchen table, all comfy, shooting out the window.
Nice job - good luck to your son
luck,greg
My replacement has arrived. Fitting and testing sometime this week.
Anyone know the torque settings for a laminate stock?
Cheers
Jas
Thank you Boyds
I ordered a "classic nutmeg" - I'm often old school
It was "in stock" and came in about a week - nice
I'd love to show pics, but will not use url linked to my computer (I'm a touch paranoid)
However, it's nicer than expected for a cnc stock, I like the feel better than my composite
The fit was snug, tho' I slid a paper towel between stock & barrel
The finish is smooth while not slippery, (I anticipated some 0000 steel wool) - VERY NICE
THANK YOU RANDY
luck,greg
Rec'd mine today forest green/classic, the fit was perfect ! Even with my after market trigger. I just have to add a red dot under the safety tag.
Great job Boyd's ! Now PLEASE make a stock for the savage B-mag !
thank you
Got home from work today and the stock was waiting for me! Other than being slightly tight on the bolt release it fits like a glove. Now to find the time to sight it in before rifle season starts.
Excellent job Boyds!
Thanks Lisa for your help on the phone.
Ordered mine on Thursday, and it's on the truck and scheduled to be here tomorrow. I must have ordered at just the right time.
Hello all. I am new to this forum and wanted to chime in as it pertains to my Axis. I have been lurking on the site for a while now, but did not want to register for yet another firearm forum, but here I am...
I received my new Boyds' stock today (classic in pepper) for my 223 stainless Axis. After attaching the action to the stock, I found it does not work. I am encountering two problems, one of which other people seem to have encountered with the prototypes, and the other I have not seen mentioned:
1. The bolt release does not work when the action is attached to the stock.
2. The magazine catch does not work, and the magazine falls out every time I cycle the bolt. Rounds will feed from the magazine, but the magazine drops out as you cycle the bolt back closed.
Anyone else encounter #2? I received the correct stock (at least it was labeled short action) and the magazine feeds, but will not lock in place.
I will be calling Boyds' in the morning, but wanted to see if anyone else experienced this with their new stock?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
