Savage Arms introduces new AXIS bolt-action rifles
Launched on the US market just in time for the beginning of hunting season, the new Savage Arms AXIS bolt-action rifles expand and refresh a line that already enjoys a great reputation as budget-oriented hunting alternatives and have been constantly on top of sales since their first introduction back in 2010.
Available in Full or Compact stock options, in different materials and colors, and with 41 cm, 46 cm, 51 cm or 56 cm barrels (16", 18", 20", 22") depending on the caliber and configuration, the new AXIS rifles were redesigned specifically in terms of ergonomics.
