Something you might want to check is the length of the rear action screw. A friend mine had an Axis in .22-250 that was driving him nuts. It wasn't grouping well and had a lot of vertical stringing. He brought it to me and I wrestled with it for two weeks before realizing that the screw was bottoming out before snugging the action down. That accounted for the vertical stringing. I took two full turns off the screw and accuracy settled in to sub-MOA. I had seen issues with Savage rifles and the front action screw being too long, but his was the first with the rear screw being the problem.
