The Axis 2 Compact is Savage's answer to a rifle that fits smaller shooters properly instead of asking them to grow into an adult stock. The shortened length of pull and 20-inch barrel make it easy for a younger hunter to shoulder and swing, and 7mm-08 Remington is arguably the ideal cartridge for the job, delivering flat trajectory and clean kills on deer-sized game with noticeably less recoil than a .308. Savage's adjustable AccuTrigger lets a parent set a light, crisp pull that helps a new shooter break the shot cleanly.

This version pairs a black barreled action with an FDE synthetic stock and feeds from a detachable box magazine.
