Savage Arms Axis II XP .400 Legend 20" 5-Round Rifle

The Savage Arms Axis 2 XP Combo Green Compact 400 Legend rifle is purpose-built for hunters and tactical shooters seeking a modern, compact platform chambered in the increasingly popular 400 Legend cartridge. This rifle combines proven Savage engineering with an integrated scope package, eliminating the guesswork of optic selection and providing an out-of-the-box ready hunting or training solution. The compact profile—39.5 inches overall length—makes it ideal for tight shooting environments, vehicle storage, or hunters navigating dense brush without sacrificing the ballistic performance demanded by medium-game applications.

At 10.7 pounds, this rifle delivers a manageable weight without sacrificing accuracy or durability. The 20-inch barrel balances velocity retention with handling, while the synthetic stock resists weather and abuse—critical for field use. The Axis 2 platform features a user-friendly safety, crisp trigger geometry, and a right-hand ejection port optimized for conventional shooting positions. With a 4+1 capacity (4-round magazine plus one round chambered), the rifle provides adequate shot opportunities for hunting scenarios while maintaining compact proportions. The odor-dampening green finish serves dual purposes: low-visibility fieldcraft and corrosion resistance that outperforms traditional blued finishes in harsh environments.

Law enforcement designated marksmen, civilian hunters, and tactical training operations benefit from this platform's reliability and proven track record. The included scope is factory-mounted and bore-sighted, eliminating bench time before field deployment. Right-hand operation suits the majority of shooters, while the compact footprint integrates seamlessly into tactical carbine courses or hunting pack loads. Magazine compatibility follows standard Savage 400 Legend specifications, ensuring ammunition interchangeability across your Axis 2 inventory. Whether staged for home defense, deployed to a hunting lease, or used for professional marksmanship training, this rifle performs without affectation.
