Sav Axis 2 6.5 Creedmoor 22" 4-Round Bolt-Action Rifle

The Savage Arms Axis II 6.5 Creedmoor 22" bolt-action rifle is purpose-built for precision shooters and hunters who demand accuracy without the premium price tag. This rifle bridges the gap between entry-level and mid-range platforms, delivering the ballistic performance of the 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge in a compact, manageable platform. Whether you're setting up a long-range hunting rig, building a precision rifle for distance shooting, or seeking a reliable training platform, the Axis II delivers consistent results across varied applications.

The 22-inch barrel strikes an optimal balance between velocity, handling, and portability—ideal for field work where weight matters. Savage's proven two-lug bolt design ensures reliable feeding and extraction across the full velocity spectrum of 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition. The 4-round magazine capacity supports both hunting scenarios and precision shooting sessions without excessive bulk, while the bolt-action configuration provides inherent accuracy through its rigid primary extraction system. Cold-hammer-forged barrel construction and quality control typical of Savage Arms platforms ensure consistent shot-to-shot grouping and long-term durability even with high round counts.

This rifle is exceptionally well-suited for law enforcement precision marksmen, military designated marksmen, civilian long-range competitors, and serious hunters pursuing elk, deer, and similar game at extended distances. The 6.5 Creedmoor's superior ballistics—flat trajectory, minimal wind drift, and retained energy—make this chambering increasingly popular in professional and competitive circles. The Axis II accepts standard Savage aftermarket stocks, triggers, and optic mounts, enabling shooters to customize their platform without gunsmithing. Most users pair this rifle with quality optics in the 3–12x or 4–16x magnification range to fully leverage its inherent accuracy potential.
