    Haha! Good catch! I guess the cat is out of the bag, I live next to H.G. Wells and he lets me borrow his fancy little time machine from time to time.

    Weaver has scope mounts lists on their chart for the Savage Axis. I recently ordered the Weaver 1 piece base via ebay. I am now wondering if it is going to fit my Savage Axis youth model, if, as you have stated, the only companies that are currently making bases for the Savage Axis does not include Weaver in your article?

    The Weaver 1 piece base (part number 48347) will fit your Axis. Being a 1 piece, multi-slot base opens up a whole new world of what you can put atop your axis. I had several very nice scopes that were just a tad too short to fit the long span between the 2 piece bases but with the Weaver one piece base the sky's the limit.

    Sharp Shooter Supply has started to make stocks for the Savage Axis as well I don't think that they have it posted on their website yet but if you email them they will send you info about it. Fair warning tho the stock costs as much as the rifle (about $225) but it is an option for those of you who hate the factory stock as much as I do. They are also testing an aftermarket trigger and it should be available soon no info on the price the last that I talked to them. They were still figuring out what to set the price at but looking forward to putting one on my rifle.

    I see this FAQ is a bit outdated. The new address for Sharp Shooter Supply is http://www.sharpshootersupply.com/

    Are the stock/ Chassis options still limited to Boyd's, SSS and MDT?

    Howdy !...new to the forum...have 2 Savage conversions from that 3 alphabet company so this forum is a good place to suck up some knowledge...the conversions are a challenge because I just have the info for the Savage action and have to dismantle everything as they don't supply any parts diagrams...I have learned at least 3 useful tips already...great source of info

    While perusing my local Cabelas, I was pleased to find a Leupold 20 minute, one-piece mount that will accommodate both the Axis and the 110
