The Talley Picatinny Base for the Savage Axis (Talley part no. P00252725) is a zero-MOA, long-action rail that mounts with 6-48 screws. Talley machines it from 7000 series aluminum alloy in the USA and hard-coat anodizes it. It gives the Axis a one-piece MIL-STD-1913 top that accepts any Picatinny ring set. The screw size is the detail to check first, because Savage used both 6-48 and 8-40 screws on Axis actions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know whether I need 6-48 or 8-40 screws? Talley notes that older Axis actions use 6-48 screws and most newer rifles use 8-40. Savage centerfire rifles with a serial number starting with P need 8-40, and this part number is the 6-48 version.

Is there a short-action version? Talley lists the Axis rail only in long action.

Are rings included? No. The base ships with its screws and a T-15 wrench, and rings are sold separately.
