Detailed Review

The Savage Arms Axis II XP 22678 is a modern hunting rifle that delivers outstanding accuracy, reliability, and comfort. It boasts a sleek design, advanced features, and premium components that make it an excellent choice for both seasoned hunters and beginner shooters.

The Axis II XP 22678 comes with a durable synthetic stock that is resistant to wear and tear, weather conditions, and rough handling. The stock has a comfortable grip, a textured surface, and a recoil pad that reduces felt recoil by up to 50%. This makes shooting more comfortable and easier on your shoulder.

The rifle also features a precision button-rifled barrel that is 22 inches long and made of high-grade carbon steel. The barrel has a matte black finish that reduces glare and protects against rust and corrosion. The barrel is free-floating, meaning it is not attached to the stock, which eliminates any interference between the barrel and the stock, resulting in better accuracy and consistency.

The Axis II XP 22678 uses the AccuTrigger system, which is a patented technology that allows you to adjust the trigger pull weight from 2.5 to 6 pounds. This ensures a crisp, clean, and consistent trigger pull, which is crucial for accuracy and precision shooting. The trigger is also designed to prevent accidental discharge and has a blade safety that blocks the trigger when engaged.

The rifle is chambered in .243 Winchester, which is a popular and versatile cartridge for hunting small to medium game. The .243 is known for its flat trajectory, low recoil, and high velocity, making it ideal for long-range shooting and accuracy. The rifle has a detachable box magazine that holds four rounds, which is easy to load and unload and reliable in all weather conditions.

The Axis II XP 22678 comes with a 3-9x40mm Weaver Kaspa scope that is factory mounted and bore-sighted for convenience and accuracy. The scope has a multi-coated lens that delivers bright, clear, and sharp images in all lighting conditions. The scope also has a fast-focus eyepiece that allows you to quickly and easily adjust the focus according to your eyesight.

In summary, the Savage Arms Axis II XP 22678 is a high-quality hunting rifle that offers exceptional performance, comfort, and reliability. It combines a durable synthetic stock, a precision barrel, an adjustable trigger, a popular cartridge, and a factory-mounted scope into a complete package that is ready to shoot right out of the box.

Fun

Great truck gun that you won't cry over if it takes a little abuse. Accurate straight out of the box. Only complaint is the heaviness of the trigger.

Great

Great gun. Out the Box clean the barrel. Took it to the range had it sighted in within 10 Rounds. Stacks bullets pretty good. The only negative thing I have to say about it is the company had it on backorder after Cabela's sell for nearly a month. I did n

For the price you can not beat this rifle, shoots straight, light weight, and would not take much to turn it into a a great rifle. One negative, the mag has been falling out after firing, I will be contacting the manufacturer to see if there is a fix or w

Nice

Great gun for the price point. Yes it's a entry level rifle but very well made and accurate. Only lost a star for the extremely heavy trigger pull.

Does not fire & stock is too short

Purchased the .223 version and brand new out of the box gun does not fire. Ok, 1 out of 10 rounds will go off so 10% of the time it fires. All primers are dimpled and tried several brands of ammunition. Also, the stock is very short. Am a 6' male and the

Outstanding for the price!

I bought this rifle chambered in 6.5CM. It is an absolute tack driver, with match grade factory ammo its shooting sub MOA at 200yrds. The stock feels a little flimsy and trigger is a little rough at first(smoothed out as it was shot) but overall it is a g

Great shooer, BUT

First of all, I love how this rifle shoots! Dead accurate right out of the box (well, after you add a scope). I added a Simmons 3-9 x30 that I had laying around. After sighting in, MOA was easy even at 200 yds. I have tried various factory loads and my ow

More than I expected.

I bought this gun with scope included was not expecting much out of scope or rings only because with rebates is was cheap. Rings were better than expected even though I replaced them with steel. Scope base was loose when I pulled off rings. Scope is brigh

Great rifle for beginner

I am new to hunting and wanted an inexpensive but reliable gun. I found it! The axis is lightweight, accurate and holds zero. I purchased it in 30-06 caliber and have been very pleased with the performance. The trigger is a bit heavy but you get used to i
