Looking forward to bbl specs and performance. Have to say, though i have reservations about the receiver performance.
Bought an Edge .223 before Savage changed name to Axis. It now has a Shaw Varmit contour 6.5x45 barrel on it. Happy with mine, one of my more accurate rifles. Shoot with a gent who has a habit of buying Savage rifles, just to be able to rebarrel them to something else more exotic than the normal cartridges found in factory rifles. He must own at least three Axis rifles that he's rebarreled. To quote him....."Axis action is good to build on" He has ability to tweak a factory Axis trigger for his benchrest shooting. Not sure what brand stocks he's put on his Axis for his benchrest shooting.....me, I made one for mine.
