The Savage Axis 2 XP Compact 6.5 Creedmoor Left-Hand in FDE (Savage part no. 32245) is a scoped compact bolt-action hunting rifle with a 20-inch barrel and a 4-round detachable box magazine. Savage builds it on the Axis 2 platform with a redesigned, textured synthetic stock, ambidextrous palm swells and the user-adjustable AccuTrigger. A 3-9x40mm scope is mounted and bore-sighted at the factory, so it is set up for a final zero at the range. At 7.5 lbs and 39.5 inches overall, it is a manageable rifle for a left-handed hunter after big game, hogs or predators.
