I haven’t got to shoot it yet, but fit and finish are very nice. Bolt operates smoothly with minimal play. Trigger is crisp with very little take up.
I will update my review after a few rounds.

Love this gun. Very accurate once zeroed in had no problem. Consistent 2″ groups at 100 yards +.
Trigger is stiffer than I prefer but I’m going to replace the spring kit to get it around 3lb, easy fix. Light weight.
Weaver scope is better than expected. Clear, nice reticle, adjustments put it right where you need it. No complaints. Great buy.

To start out the scope is no good it would make a good target with a good rifle the trigger has about a 7 lb pull not good for hunting or target shooting the over all build of the gun is very cheap if you buy this because it is cheap that is what you are going to get. I do not recommend buying this rifle spend a little more money and get a better rifle.

I was very surprised with the performance of this gun considering it’s a budget buy. Low recoil, very accurate and fun to shoot. The scope is better than I expected.

Out of the box the trigger is rough when checked with a trigger pull gauge it was 7lbs. When shooting it was hard not to move the gun due to the trigger pull. I modified the trigger and now the pull is 2lbs much better and smoother. I also sanded the stock down so the barrel free floated all the way to the receiver because it was really tight about 2/3 way back. The last time it was shot the rifle was getting 5/8 groups at 100yds but it was almost dark so I think it will do better. I was shooting Norma 130gr Match Grade ammo. you can not go wrong with this gun.

I recently bought this rifle 1 week ago today. I got this set at 52yrds then jumped to 108yrds got it centered on bullseye shooting TIGHT! 1inch groups. At 108 yrds and also shooting the same bullet holes,2 outa 3 hit the same hole. At 108yrds. This savage axis 6.5 creedmoor is a great buy all the way. And Yes the scope could be better but I have mine zeroed in 108yrds . I will be looking a much better budget scope im looking at the vortex brands. For this rifle. I Hope this review helps.. I bought mine from my local gunshop.
