    Rear Action screw lost


    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.
