I went off the deep end according to my wife, and got the Axis II .300 AAC. I love that round and the # of things you can do with it, reloading-wise. That being said, I will deer hunt with it...200 yards and less where I hunt. Any advice on scopes for it? Any one really taken it long distance and if so, how far? I am not scared of budget rifles... I own a TC Compass 6.5 Creedmoor and it is 4 for 4 with bucks hanging on the wall. Love good quality bolt action and excited about my Savage. Also, if you have experience with Boyds and stocks for this model, I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
