Description
Picture this: you’re glassing a bean field at last light, and a coyote appears at 250 yards. You need a rifle that’s ready, accurate, and doesn’t require a second mortgage. That’s where the Savage Axis 22-250 Remington, 22″ Barrel, Synthetic Black, Left Hand, 4 rd comes in. It’s a purpose-built, no-fuss bolt-action rifle chambered in the flat-shooting .22-250 Remington, designed for left-handed shooters who demand performance on a budget.
This rifle is the answer for the Missouri varminter or predator hunter who needs to make precise, long-range shots without hesitation. The synthetic black stock shrugs off weather, and the left-handed configuration means natural, fluid operation for southpaws. At a total length of 42.5 inches, it’s maneuverable from a truck window or a ground blind. The heart of the system is the renowned Savage AccuTrigger, which provides a crisp, user-adjustable pull right out of the box—no gunsmithing required. This single feature elevates the Axis far above other rifles in its price class, translating directly to tighter groups when it counts.
Chambered in the legendary .22-250 Remington, this Axis is built for speed. The 22-inch barrel is the ideal length for balancing velocity and handling, pushing lightweight bullets at velocities that flatten trajectories and extend your effective range dramatically. Weighing in at approximately 6.5 pounds, it’s easy to carry all day yet remains steady for offhand shots. The detachable box magazine holds 4 rounds, offering quick follow-ups. Pair this rifle with a solid scope from brands like Vortex or Leupold, and you have a system that far outperforms its $331.72 price tag. Here’s the thing—it just works.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the AccuTrigger really adjustable, and is it safe?
A: Yes. The Savage AccuTrigger is mechanically designed to be safely adjusted by the user within a range, typically from about 2.5 to 6 pounds. It includes a unique center safety lever that prevents firing unless the trigger is deliberately pulled.
Q: What kind of scope base does this Axis model use?
A: The Savage Axis uses a standardized 2-piece scope base pattern. It is compatible with common Savage 110-style bases, which are widely available from manufacturers like Weaver, Leupold, and Warne.
Q: How is the accuracy with factory ammunition?
A: The .22-250 Remington is inherently accurate, and the free-floated barrel and good trigger on the Axis allow it to perform well. Most shooters can expect 1 to 1.5 MOA groups with quality factory ammo, which is more than sufficient for its intended roles.
