Welcome to the group. Try looking at Boyd's web site for an Axis stock.

I would second Boyd's for a good stock. Not the greatest thing ever, but world of difference between the stock stock and a boyd's laminate. Bang for the buck, hard to beat a boyds. The first thing I would always upgrade on my savages were to get a Boyd's and bed the action. I have a lot of savages (used to be tons, but because of space constraints and to fund some custom builds let some that I didn't use much go), and quite a few of the Savages are in Boyd's At-Ones now, think all that aren't in chassises (chassi, chassis', chassiss, wth is the plural of chassis????) or in factory stocks like the model 12 palma or 112 target magnum.

Had a 12FV 22-250 that wouldn't group very well after break in with any load I tried, bedded into a Boyd's <forget the name now, the one like a manner's t4 profile> and found a load that would do .25 all day, got a few .1s and a single .087. That rifle was the one that got me hooked onto savages, sold every other brand I had at the time (bolt actions) and ran nothing but Savages until I ran out of space in the safe and started upgrading to customs for some of my calibers.

Just pulled it up, pro varmint (can't believe I had forgotten that after buying so many).

Anywho, again, welcome.
