Snagged an Axis today for 236 shipped. After rebate it'll set me back a 176 bucks. I've got a couple scopes to pick from sitting in a drawer in my closet. Amazon gift card is getting me a 20 moa base. Cannot wait for my FFL to let me know it's arrived. Just wanted people to celebrate with! When it comes in, I'll do the standard work on the stock, stiffening it up, bedding the action, and adding some weight. If it shoots as well as my 243, I should have a heck of a rifle when it's done.
