My wife and I both have Savage Axis in 223. Both shoot very well with 27 gr. TAC and a 40 gr Sierra Blitzking. These rifles have become our go to rifles for the dog towns. There is a lot of accuracy for a very little money in these rifles.
I will try one in 6.5 Creedmoor just because.
I hate the Axis stock ergs, so unless I find one in 6.5 Creed priced as cheap as zucchinis in Lake Wobegon, I'll stick with the RAR-Predators.
