Description
You’re glassing a ridgeline at first light, the Missouri frost still clinging to the grass. A distant coyote, a nuisance predator threatening livestock, presents a long, ethical shot. You need a rifle that’s ready right now—no fuss, no endless accessory shopping. That’s the Savage Axis II XP 25-06 Remington, With 3X9X40 Scope, 22″ Barrel, Stainless Steel, Synthetic, Black, 4 rd. It’s a complete, out-of-the-box hunting system designed for the practical shooter who values immediate readiness and reliable performance.
Here’s the thing—when it comes to hunting whitetail, coyote, or varmints across varied terrain, you need a tool that bridges the gap between affordability and genuine capability. The Savage Axis II XP does exactly that. For $476.29, you get a rifle, a mounted and bore-sighted 3-9x40mm scope, and a hard-hitting 25-06 Remington cartridge known for its flat trajectory and long-range energy. This package ships to Missouri and compliant US states, arriving ready for your final zero-check at the range. No gunsmithing required; it’s a true grab-and-go solution.
The heart of this package is the proven Savage Axis II action, now featuring the user-adjustable AccuTrigger. This isn’t a generic, gritty pull. You can tailor the trigger weight to your preference, a critical feature for maintaining a steady squeeze on those longer shots where precision is non-negotiable. Paired with the free-floated, button-rifled 22-inch stainless steel barrel, the system is built for consistent accuracy. The stainless construction resists corrosion from morning dew or a sudden rain shower, a practical advantage for any Missouri hunter.
Topping the rifle is a 3-9x40mm scope, a versatile magnification range that’s ideal for everything from close-quarters woodlot shots to reaching out across a bean field. It’s pre-mounted and bore-sighted, meaning your first range session is about fine-tuning, not starting from scratch. The synthetic stock is lightweight and durable, shrugging off bumps and scrapes during a long trek. Weighing in at approximately 6.5 lbs without the scope, it’s a rifle you can carry all day without fatigue compromising your form.
Pros & Cons
The Good: Exceptional out-of-the-box value with a ready-to-hunt package. The adjustable AccuTrigger is a major upgrade for shot control. Stainless steel barrel offers durability in all weather. The 25-06 Remington is a highly effective and versatile flat-shooting cartridge.
The Considerations: The synthetic stock is functional but not luxurious. The included scope gets you started, but serious long-range enthusiasts may eventually upgrade to optics from brands like Vortex or Leupold. As with any firearm purchase, an FFL transfer is required.
Who This Rifle Is For
This is the ideal first hunting rifle for a new shooter or a superb, no-nonsense backup for a seasoned hunter. It’s for the landowner who needs a reliable tool for predator control, or the deer hunter who wants a dedicated, foul-weather rifle. If your priority is a capable, accurate system that requires minimal setup and delivers maximum performance per dollar, this Axis II XP package is your answer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the scope really ready to shoot?
A: Yes. The scope is mounted and bore-sighted at the factory. This means it will be on paper at 100 yards, but you must take it to the range to confirm and fine-tune the zero for your specific ammunition. It’s setup-ready, not sighted-in.
Q: What is the effective range of the 25-06 Remington for deer?
A: With proper shot placement and a quality 117-120 grain bullet, the 25-06 is capable of ethical takedowns out to 400 yards and beyond. Its high velocity and flat trajectory make it excellent for open country and longer shots where holdover is minimal.
Q: Can I use aftermarket stocks or accessories?
A: Absolutely. The Savage Axis II has strong aftermarket support. Stocks from companies like Boyd’s are popular upgrades, and the rifle’s standard scope base is compatible with Remington 700-style rings—a hugely common standard.
