Hey who tee who you should do a video on a centennial Winchester 30-30 1966 👍 I recently bought one brand new without the original box but it's still not have been fired since it left the factory in 66 , the 30-30 was made or built 6 years before I was born
Exactly, some because they aren’t expensive enough for bragging rights, some just didn’t like the looks of th old barrel nut , which is funny, because the barrel adjustment is what makes them so accurate.
@@John_Redcorn_ ahh, didn’t know that, but I know , since I was a kid, a long time ago, Savage was always known for inherent accuracy. But , since they weren’t as “ pretty “ as, say a BDL, and cost a lot less, only people that were concerned with getting a good rifle for affordable prices, and target shooters, who would use the actions for builds, were buying them. I’m no gunsmith by a long shot, and only know the barrel thing from reading and listening, but Savage has always been a great value.
I like my savage rifles. Great shooters. I have a 22lr heavy barrel for my grand daughter, axis II precision,and savage ultralite both in 6.5 cm, all are accurate as can be. Ironically,the ultralite has the stiffest action out them
Savage has some of the most accurate barrels for the price on the market, I’ve always liked them, mix them with the accutrigger on the Axis 2 (and higher end models) it makes for a very fine rifle.
Very true. I’ve noticed quite a few people buy them as the base to a target build. Savage has always been known for above par accuracy. But some can’t get past the looks of the barrel nut on the older ones ( which is exactly what made them shoot so good), or, the low price of even their 10/110 series rifles scares away the snobs because if it doesn’t cost thousands , it has no bragging rights. All my savages are shooters, I’ll keep them. They all shot
My first bolt gun was a ‘91-‘92 110 G in .308. Still have it in great shape and it is still laser beam accurate. Am quite fond of it. Their barrels are excellent.
The most accurate hunting rifle out of the box I have ever owned was a savage model 10 in 243 I have guns that cost 5x as much and would not shoot like that little savage. A few years back I gave it to my daughter for her deer rifle.
I'd love to get that savage straight pull bolt action in 243. But that axis and lil 3x9x40 is all you need in the south to hunt deer and hogs. That's a popular set up as a first deer rifle in my neck of the woods
I have the same rifle in 6.5 creedmoor. I put a 15 dollar mcarbo trigger spring kit in it (trigger pull was too heavy for my liking) and put a boyds stock on it. And now im getting 3 round groups all touching in a penny like your plates are set up. At 100 yards. Using hornady match ammo. I also upgraded the scope to a vortex crossfire II my son gonna try to take a deer with it this year. The polymer stock on my 6.5 was warped and rubbing the barrel and messed with the groups so i put a boyds spikecamp stock on. Made it much more accurate rifle. Lots of people hate savage rifles but I've always had good luck with them. I have an older model axis in 30/06 it has taken 5 deer and dropped them all where they stood. Im looking ot add a ruger american to my Arsenal next.
I bought the Savage Axis 2 Overwatch (HB) in .243 for my son last year and it’s a great rifle I couldn’t find ammo for my 30-06 so I used his rifle and took a huge buck with it.
Man i can't believe how good those savage axis rifles shoot. I have a browning 300 i wish could get that good of groups out of. Can't wait for your next video
@@BaFunGool iv killed a many deer and hog back in the day with a 243. It was a win model 88 my first deer gun as a kid. I'd still be using it now but it and the sister 100 I got years later was stolen a few years ago
We load 85 gr. sierra boat tail hollow points and drop deer in their tracks every time when you chest shoot them .Been using this in a Savage Axis for 20 years. Put a Timney Trigger in it and you'll really see those groups get tighter ! Great Video ! Keep going !
I have the same rifle in 30-06 but it was waaay to light to be shot comfortably , full scope rail ,new stock, new scope , new bolt handle and a muzzle brake and the rifle is top notch , good rifle to build on because they are absolute straight shooters , a good rifle that can be made a great rifle for under a thousand bucks .
I got my Savage 11 threaded, put on a 10 model Boyd's Stock, added a better bipod, added a muzzle break, added a 6-24×50, and bam! A customized accurate .308 blowing up tannerite with every shot! My Cadillac rifle that cost a little less than $900
I own the savage "edge" in 243. Tack driver is all I can say. Same results as the axis , same hole groups. I use the Winchester whitetail 100 grain soft points. Has never let me down no matter the distance. Love the video's 👍🤘
I bought one of these in 308 in the beginning when it was still called the savage "edge" it is a fantastic rifle for the money and i never really wanted anything more
I bought the same rifle for my son. Some three shot groups were approaching 1/2" @ 100yds. Several factory loads easily printed 3/4" groups. I've been extremely impressed.
Originally I was very skeptical of these Savage Axis guns. I figured with such a great price they had to be junk. I started with a 30-06. I've really grown to love the gun for Elk. Then we got my Boy .17 HMR. He can practically Drive tackas with that thing. Then we bought him the very same gun you're shooting, the Axis .243. It's been an awesome deer rifle for him.
I love my Axis in .270. Added the M Carbo pro Trigger kit and removed enough material from the barrel channel to be sure its absolutely free floated. Removed the recoil pad and stuffed 3lbs of sand in baggies in there. It balanced the rifle nicely. Also helped a lot with recoil. Hand loads at .5moa all day long. Group therapy is good for all of us.
I shot a Savage Axis in 25/06 for many years. It was very accurate and had zero issues with it. I sold it to my brother in law because he wanted it and I bought a Savage Storm in 270WSM it's also deadly accurate shooting ragged holes at 100 yds. I've never had an inaccurate Savage. Wish I could say that for a lot of other manufacturers.
I shot a 243 after I broke my shoulder super bad. Fell in love with the cartridge. It's a great round that hits so damn hard for size. The shoulder is better these days but I still drop hogs and deer every year with the cartridge that won me over while I recovered.
Got the 243 savage axis for my wifey in the muddy girl camo and she shoots that little gun great. I love it to and I got the axis 2 with the adjustable trigger in a heavy barreled 22-250 thats one of my favorite rifles. Who-tee-who pulling out the stops with this one. Great groups 👏 👍 👌
in 2019 , after Deer season was over and they were trying to move the stock , Academy sports had this same rig for $199.00 ! I wish I'd bought a couple in different calibers now .
I just bought the same gun in a 308 I haven't tried it yet so I was wondering how well they work I feel really confident about the gun now thank you brother
Hey WTW!! Those scope reticles are "suspended" by springs. When you make an adjustment, you are increasing or decreasing the tension on the springs. Those springs have a certain amount of "binding" and "hysteresis" in them. If you take a plastic handled screwdriver or small plastic hammer and lightly tap on the adjustment screws (with the plastic part of the screwdriver or hammer), after you make an adjustment, it will take the "Jump" out of the scope reticle before the next shot. The result will be that your next shot placement will be closer to the crosshairs. I always make about 3-4 taps on each screw (windage AND elevation) after each adjustment. Saves time and ammo when sighting in your rifle/scope package, and I've never had any problems with scope life or reliability by doing this. Hope this helps and God Bless!!
Just seen your video. I just bought a Savage AXIS 2 with accu trigger in 308. Brought it home and completely disassembled it and cleaned - lubed and then loctited everything and mounted a 20 year old tried and true 3x9x40 Simmons scope. Not crazy about the two piece rings that came with it but locktited them as well. Have not had the chance to try it out yet but if it shoots as well as yours I will be satisfied.
I love my savage 243 I have lighten my trigger and shoots really good groups and it's good for hunting goats feral dogs and cats I use federal ammo in mine 80grain and 100 grain plus I like reloading my own ammo keep up great videos From Down Under :)
I have 2 savage rifles and I like them both I have 223 savage edge camo and 30-06 axis with accue trigger its the best I'm very happy with both I also have other rifles but I lean towards these 2 some say 223 is small game but... I shot a bull moose with it last fall a 3x3 bull should've got a video of it for proof though next time
That was a really fun video and good shooting the The b22m is my cheapest and most fun rifle in 22mag and its a laser, has an accutrigger thing was like $250 new
Bought one used from my buddy today for $225. Came with a bore sight laser and 40 rounds. Can't wait to go deer hunting for the first time in years. Also, you mentioned the humidity in Tennessee. We're North Georgia and it's insane how hot it's gotten this year.
Good shooting. Picked up some Norma 7mm-08 from Sportsman Guide at $26 a box for grandson after watching you use it 2 weeks ago. Shoots great in TC Compass II. Hope Norma comes out with good 350 Legend load. Thanks for good video
Bore sighing 'high rise' scope mount a different anamal. Myself place high rise scope mounts when rifle has factory iron sights, e.g., Marlin 30.30. Always can utilize iron sights via scope failure while in the feild. Had a trip and fall and damaged scope, I finished daily hunt via iron sights. Later went to hospital, two stitches in my head. I wear short motorcycle helmet, covered in camo duct tape especially when hunting/hiking alone.
That last group was bodacious! Can't ask for better. This gun functioned better than the 7mm-08, which seemed to have a sticky bolt. Again, great video!
Great groups right out of the box..Norma ammo definitely on my radar so I can be lazy and not reload. First 243 isn50 years old the Winchester 670 model (budget Model 70) with cheapest 3 by 9 scope ended a bunch of groundhogs. Even at 9 zoomies lot of 400 yard shots if it was a miss was my fault LOL
I have a couple of Savage rifles and I don’t care what anyone says, they’re some of the best shooting long guns I own. They’re consistently on target and have great triggers.
very nice and typical of a savage. I would love to have this in my collection. I have this H & R .243 rifle I dressed out with an ar-type stock. it's a tack driver and fun to hunt with, but I would love to use this on a Coues whitetail hunt.
I buy nothing but the savage axis... for 25 years savage has been my favorite rifle.. my 243 axis will shoot a clover leaf.. took a while with my hand loads to get it there but finally got it
Actually I love my savage rifles. I have in 22LR , 22 magnum, 308 win mag, and some other They are very accurate, smooth, light & cheap. They do the job done, Thanks who tee who for your awesome clip.
That's a really nice rifle. I've never owned one but I'm really thinking about buying one now. I think it would pretty well beat my Remington 700. Another fun video WHO_TEE!
Awesome video as always. I recently picked up a Savage Axis ii with the acu trigger, chambered in 350 Legend. Can’t wait to take it to the range. I’ll let you know what kind of groups I can get with it.
Great video brother I want a savage axis 2 At my gun clubs raffle The acute trigger really brings out the accuracy So I put a Boyd's custom varmit stock on it And use Horner D superformance ammo I get sub 58" groups at 2:00 yd it is a very awesome rifle for the price point Love your videos buddy
This was, indeed, a very fun video! EXCELLENT results! I am so eager to go test my Savage Axis XP .308 in hardwood (wally clearance hee hee hee). Ironically, I have a Weatherby Vanguard Select .30-06 in synthetic (wally clearance, also) to compare for accuracy. You make some very fun and relevant videos. Thank you and Happy New Year! Grace and Peace 😊
The MOA for that Savage is enviable for even the most expensive rifles. What are the boys at Savage doing to those barrels to achieve that level of consistency? I reckon even Jed Clampett would be proud to use that rifle to pick the wings off of flies.
I got a Savage 223 got a buck with one shot on the high shoulder .. first 10 pointer in Texas of a buck .. highly recommend Savage, light and shoots good from a 150 yards where I shot the buck ..
me and my dad use savage rifles and they are amazing! I have the 243win axis (the older gen that had the bushnell scope) and my dad has the 110e in 270win and these rifle are very accurate while still being at a good price (around 300 cad in 1988 for my dad's and around 500 cad for mine(scope included))
I have watched this video a bunch of times, I was watching your trigger pull, on the first plate you jerked, second plate still a little Jerry, 3rd plate you had superior smooth trigger pull great shooting.
LGS got one for under $300. I got a Rossi matched pair .243 and I like it a lot, thought about getting this but I’ve already got a .357 Mag on layaway and a new Bond Arms Rowdy XL on layaway too. It would be interesting to see a video showing the Hornady Varmint ammo, 58gr at 4,000fps would be a great round to smack stuff with
I own a savage 114 in 30-06 with accutrigger its an amazing rifle for the $... When new bought for under 700$. Camo stock. Blued barrel With detach mag, i put a 4.5-14×44 Meuller APV Scope and its been loyal. Shoots MOA at 100 yards no issues
If the axis doesn't have the accu-trigger you can get the M-CARBO spring kit for it and drop the trigger pull down to about 2 pounds. Watch the m-carbo spring kit video on TH-cam. Great video by the way.
Nice! That's impressive, cheap rifle or not, that's exactly what a shooter wants from their rifle. Talkin' about Tennessee, I wish I had more time off, I came down there from MI beginning of June to buy a Deuce and a half from a fella in New Tazewell. Stopped at Kats kitchen for breakfast and my god, y'alls food is so good, lol, best biscuits and gravy I ever had! Would've been nice to stop out at Heavy Metals shop and check it out and the range, but I only had 3 days off and 700 miles to drive a big beast back home, lol.
Cool video Adam! The majority of my bolt action rifles are Savage - you could say that's my "go to" brand like Ruger Americans are for you. I really like the Axis with the accu-triggers. If you ever get the chance to get one of those you should give it a try. Keep the videos coming my friend!!
From what I’ve seen and experienced most 243 really likes the 100 Gr bullets. My Remington 770 loves the Remington 100 Gr core-lokt’s. Print’s em under a inch all day long.

Most Savage guns are UNION made right here in the US of A, which is one more reason why I love them.
Good video Who Tee, you know the 243 100 grain has the same ballistics as the 223 55 grain, the 243 55 grain really zings
I got a savage axis 7mm magnum recently!
I have a couple of Savage rifles and I don’t care what anyone says, they’re some of the best shooting long guns I own. They’re consistently on target and have great triggers.
very nice and typical of a savage. I would love to have this in my collection. I have this H & R .243 rifle I dressed out with an ar-type stock. it's a tack driver and fun to hunt with, but I would love to use this on a Coues whitetail hunt.
I buy nothing but the savage axis... for 25 years savage has been my favorite rifle.. my 243 axis will shoot a clover leaf.. took a while with my hand loads to get it there but finally got it
Actually I love my savage rifles. I have in 22LR , 22 magnum, 308 win mag, and some other
They are very accurate, smooth, light & cheap. They do the job done,
Thanks who tee who for your awesome clip.
Thanks for watching!
Bought one for my son couldn't believe the accuracy I believe that use 38 grains of Varget with a 75 grain bullet
Surprised me
I haven't been able to find 243 anywhere 😱 Tight groups from that Savage thou. Cool stuff, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching.
I got lucky and was able to grab two boxes off the shelf at sportmans warehouse today.
They are a great little rifle. I have the exact same one. But I have been using Remington and Federal 80gr SP bullets in it.
Well I’m surprised how good it shot very impressive top stuff there mate cheers Yogi 🇦🇺🤙🤙
Surprised me
That's a really nice rifle. I've never owned one but I'm really thinking about buying one now. I think it would pretty well beat my Remington 700. Another fun video WHO_TEE!
Surprised me. Appreciate you watching Mark
I have the Savage model 110 .243 caliber. Topped with a Burris 3-9x40mm BDC. And it is awesome.
Awesome video as always. I recently picked up a Savage Axis ii with the acu trigger, chambered in 350 Legend. Can’t wait to take it to the range. I’ll let you know what kind of groups I can get with it.
That was very impressive. I need to work on improving my sight-in process. You make it look so easy!
Sometimes I get lucky
Damn accurate rifle and ammo!! Awesome
Thanks for watching Johnny
Really good groups. Not a terrible set up.
Make sure to tighten the weaver bases and use LockTite. Had mine come loose on my .308 Axis. It was all over the place and cost me a deer at 125yrds.
That riffle is a keeper....I own 3 axes 1 in 223...1 in 243...and a 30 06 and they are keepers too...
Great to see some 243 action on the channel! I love my 243
Nice grouping as she is a shooter.....Good stuff.....
Great shooting! I just ordered an axis ii precision in 3006. Hope it shoots a good as yours
Awesome!
Great video brother
I want a savage axis 2 At my gun clubs raffle The acute trigger really brings out the accuracy So I put a Boyd's custom varmit stock on it And use Horner D superformance ammo I get sub 58" groups at 2:00 yd it is a very awesome rifle for the price point Love your videos buddy
This was, indeed, a very fun video! EXCELLENT results! I am so eager to go test my Savage Axis XP .308 in hardwood (wally clearance hee hee hee). Ironically, I have a Weatherby Vanguard Select .30-06 in synthetic (wally clearance, also) to compare for accuracy. You make some very fun and relevant videos. Thank you and Happy New Year! Grace and Peace 😊
The MOA for that Savage is enviable for even the most expensive rifles. What are the boys at Savage doing to those barrels to achieve that level of consistency? I reckon even Jed Clampett would be proud to use that rifle to pick the wings off of flies.
I got a Savage 223 got a buck with one shot on the high shoulder .. first 10 pointer in Texas of a buck .. highly recommend Savage, light and shoots good from a 150 yards where I shot the buck ..
I've been shooting Savage products since '97, Damn Good 👍
I am a fan
Bought 1 with wood furniture from a pawn shop. Never been fired for $300. Cant wait to take it out and try it.
me and my dad use savage rifles and they are amazing! I have the 243win axis (the older gen that had the bushnell scope) and my dad has the 110e in 270win and these rifle are very accurate while still being at a good price (around 300 cad in 1988 for my dad's and around 500 cad for mine(scope included))
My daughters deer rifle is a Savage model 11 ladyhunter. She loves it and it's shoot great.
Another great video. You can put a MCarbo trigger spring in there cheap and have a nice trigger. Love mine.
Thanks for watching David
I have watched this video a bunch of times, I was watching your trigger pull, on the first plate you jerked, second plate still a little Jerry, 3rd plate you had superior smooth trigger pull great shooting.
1/4” 100y group. What more needs to be said 👍👍👍👍👍👍
👍👍👍👍👍
Extremely good shooting.
Adam, still keeping you in prayers for your health..🙏🙏🙏
Thank you
All right. I own an Axis 243. It shoots good also. I always enjoy your videos.
LGS got one for under $300. I got a Rossi matched pair .243 and I like it a lot, thought about getting this but I’ve already got a .357 Mag on layaway and a new Bond Arms Rowdy XL on layaway too. It would be interesting to see a video showing the Hornady Varmint ammo, 58gr at 4,000fps would be a great round to smack stuff with
Love my Savage Axis ll in 223, my daughter has one in 243 and it is a tack driver
I own a savage 114 in 30-06 with accutrigger its an amazing rifle for the $... When new bought for under 700$. Camo stock. Blued barrel
With detach mag, i put a 4.5-14×44
Meuller APV Scope and its been loyal. Shoots MOA at 100 yards no issues
Awesome representation on the savage axis.... truly a dependable and youth friendly!! 223 or 243. 👍Thanks WTW
If the axis doesn't have the accu-trigger you can get the M-CARBO spring kit for it and drop the trigger pull down to about 2 pounds. Watch the m-carbo spring kit video on TH-cam. Great video by the way.
I love all my Savage rifles!
Owned many savage rifles they never disappoint
Nice! That's impressive, cheap rifle or not, that's exactly what a shooter wants from their rifle.
Talkin' about Tennessee, I wish I had more time off, I came down there from MI beginning of June to buy a Deuce and a half from a fella in New Tazewell. Stopped at Kats kitchen for breakfast and my god, y'alls food is so good, lol, best biscuits and gravy I ever had! Would've been nice to stop out at Heavy Metals shop and check it out and the range, but I only had 3 days off and 700 miles to drive a big beast back home, lol.
Cool video Adam! The majority of my bolt action rifles are Savage - you could say that's my "go to" brand like Ruger Americans are for you. I really like the Axis with the accu-triggers. If you ever get the chance to get one of those you should give it a try. Keep the videos coming my friend!!
Always appreciate you watching Bill
Just do the spring trick with the trigger and it makes a world of difference. Did it it my axis 243 and the trigger is fantastic
😂 it’s so much fun when a plan comes together and who Tee Who is a fantastic rifleman as evidenced by the results! Enjoy!
Nice video I have savage axis ii 243, 308, 22-250 while the package scope is good on all of mine I upgraded to vortex strike eagle and vortex viper
From what I’ve seen and experienced most 243 really likes the 100 Gr bullets. My Remington 770 loves the Remington 100 Gr core-lokt’s. Print’s em under a inch all day long.
I love my savage axis 2 in 270!! Fantastic combo with my vortex on top of it!
