Savage Arms Axis XP .243 Win Bolt-Action Rifle, 20″ Barrel, 33077

Product Description

The Savage Arms Axis XP is a bolt-action rifle chambered in .243 Win with a 20″ barrel. It is a scoped package. A 3-9x40mm scope comes mounted on a Weaver base with 0 MOA and is bore-sighted, so the rifle is set up for a trip to the range.

The barrel is button rifled and free floating, with a 1:9.25″ twist. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24, which makes this rifle suppressor ready. A detachable box magazine holds 4+1 rounds, and one magazine is included. The receiver is drilled and tapped, and the rifle has no iron sights, so the included scope is your sighting system.

Who it suits

The .243 Win is a common choice for hunters who want a rifle that is easy to carry and easy to shoot. At 40.5″ overall with a 20″ barrel, this one stays handy in a blind, a truck or the brush. The black synthetic stock and matte black finish keep the look plain and practical. The stock and bolt are shaped for comfortable handling. A 2-position safety is on the rifle.

Good gear to pair with it includes a sling, a bipod, spare magazines and a cleaning kit. If you plan to run a suppressor, check that it fits a 5/8×24 thread. Pick up a few boxes of .243 Win ammunition and confirm your zero at the range before you hunt.
