The Savage Axis XP .22-250 Remington Threaded Rifle is a bolt-action rifle from Savage chambered in .22-250 Remington, with a 20-inch threaded barrel and a factory-mounted scope (brand part no. 33076). The 3-9x40mm scope is mounted and bore-sighted at the factory on two-piece Weaver-style bases, so most of the setup work is done before the box is opened. It is stocked in a black synthetic sporter stock with a recoil pad, and the maker rates the trigger at 5 to 7 pounds. The 1/2×28 muzzle threads accept accessories cut for that pitch. Savage lists it for big game, hog and varmint hunting.
