I would suggest the ProVarmint model,have a few myself and been very happy with them. When you purchase choose the short action/heavy barrel, as their is no difference between the standard Axis and Axis II in regards to that stock.
Just a few points about the Axis to help you.
1.) All AXIS actions have the same screw spacing 4.800''
2.) The difference between long and short action with the Axis is the magazine well size, magazine itself, trigger guards and bolt head. For example and 30-06 Axis will have the larger diameter bolt head than the .223, a DBM that accommodates the longer ammo, and shorter shaped trigger guard and larger mag well and vice versa.
