Savage Arms Axis 19228 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

Axis rifles save money without sacrificing performance. Savage didn't design a cheaper rifle; they designed a better way to make a Savage, including pillar-bedded barrels with more uniform cooling and greater consistency. These Axis rifles feature a modern design with silky-smooth bolt operation and a detachable box magazine. Drilled and tapped for scope mounts, these XP models come with a 3-9x40 matte blued scope, already mounted and bore-sighted, so it is ready to go on the hunt when you are. They also have a black synthetic stock coupled with a 22" matte black carbon steel barrel to allow for multi-purpose shooting in multiple locales. Specifications: Sights: None Additional Info: 3-9x40 Scope Mounted Drilled/Tapped: Yes

Excellent entry level .223. Gave it 4 stars for that reason. Fit and finish are what you would expect from Savage. The scope optics are ok and tough to get really clear. The gun is dead accurate up to the 150yds we shoot. The magazine can sometimes fail t

Another very accurate rifle from savage added to the collection. Was a little skeptical about this particular model because of all the reviews about the magazine and the trigger, but savage has made a huge improvement on the magazine with the new release

Very nice gun and very happy with it. I sighted in at 50 and got 3/8 inch groups and went out to 100 and shot 2 inches above the bullseye which is where I wanted it. Plus it punched rite through a 3/8 inch mild steel plate at 20 yards awsome thanks buds

The factory scope was not zeroed in like they claim. After wasting several rounds I finally it on paper at 50 yards. When I moved to 100 yards it was like staring all over again. A certain amount of this can be blamed on the shooter but I've got other gun

No. A 5.56 stamped/rated barrel can fire both but, a 223 stamped barrel should fire only 223 ammunition.

Unknown 6 years ago

According to the manufacturer it should only come with 1 magazine. We do not guarantee how many though because the manufacturer can change that periodically and our warehouse will not open boxes to verify.
