Concerning the advertising. Savage sometimes makes special combos for big stores. Cabelas, Walmart, etc. Sometimes they get a special designation of some sort, but, it is confusing because it is not a Savage stock item. My original Axis was a Walmart special with a heavy barrel.

If the stock number doesn't fit the Savage one you might do some digging to see what it really is. Tough to do cause the folks who sell these frequently don't know much about them.
