I'm not sure if I read it here or on another forum but E A Brown will cut the face off the Axis receiver for $75.00 if you buy a barrel so it will take a normal recoil lug.
In light of what I've read about the Axis not having any value I'm certainly not going to pour too much money into a barrel. I don't sell guns but I don't want to have a high dollar pig in a fine suite either. I feel the barrels they sell at Browns are really a lot better than most want to believe.
My Savage 110 264wm shoot fantastic even though it only has a 24" barrel and it is one of their ER Shaw magnum contour barrels. I will try to post a pic of my latest 200yd target...looks like there is no button to upload a file...
Any way the three shot group is 0.667 center to center...roughly 0.866 outside to outside...and I don't shoot paper very well!
