The Savage Axis 2 XP .223 Remington rifle is a scoped bolt-action package with a 22-inch sporter barrel and a gray synthetic stock (Savage part no. 32171). Savage mounts and bore-sights a 3-9x40mm scope at the factory, so the rifle is ready to be zeroed at the range. The redesigned stock has enhanced texturing and ambidextrous palm swells, and the user-adjustable AccuTrigger and enhanced bolt handle complete the controls. At 42.5 inches and 7.7 pounds, it is a ready-to-hunt .223 Remington package.
