This brand new, exclusive Savage Axis II .308 Winchester rifle features a Kryptek Highlander stock and a Bushnell 4-12x40mm SharpShooter scope. Savage has also equipped this exclusive rifle with a Heavy Barrel. These features are all new to the Axis II family of rifles, and are not found on any other Axis II model. The Savage Axis II Kryptek 308 rifle is the perfect way for a new hunter to go from the store to the field, with the Savage AccuTrigger and Heavy Barrel optimizing the rifle for increased accuracy.
This is a very good hunting rifle for medium to long range. 600yards. Only issue I have is the magazine is very hard to insert. You really have to bang it in place or it falls out. Love the adjustability of the trigger.
I own a standard Axis .308 in black but wanted to give the Axis II .308 a shot because of the better trigger so I bought this one. I absolutely love this rifle, I took it to the range and zeroed it, it was on paper out of the box but was low and left. I quickly got it sighted in using Federal Non-Typical 150grain at 100 yards. The following weekend I went on a hog hunt and nailed the 1st hog that I saw, the rifle was right on and the boar dropped within 20 seconds of being hit. The stock Bushnell scope is actually very decent and more then clear enough for my uses. I've gotten a lot of compliments on the Kryptek Highlander finish, I also bought a matching case for it. I like the pattern as it is different from the run of the mill rifles around. I highly recommend Savage rifles they exceed my expectations and are a steal for their price. I probably will buy a 3rd .308 for my wife before our next hunt.
Great customer service; quick response to questions and info request.
Beautiful rifle through and through. I was impressed from the bore to the stock to the handle and weight. But the best part.. THE scope is nicer than my Nikon. 308 Rifle is worth $700 flat out. Great steal of a deal.
