But from this performance I have no doubt a good marksman with hand loads can shoot. I am over 70 and can’t shoot anywhere as well as I did 25 years ago. 3 shots were 3/4 moa and one shot was 1.25 moa. 4 shots grouped exactly in the same spot as the 50 yard range. I set the target out to 100 yards thinking it might shoot a little lower and more to the right because of the wind. After 8 shots it was good, group at about 1" (2 moa) an inch right of dead center (wind was blowing that way). I left the trigger as set by the factory, about 3lbs. It was a very windy day, crosswinds 15+ mph. At the range I set it up for (on a bench rest) 50 yards to fine sight it in. I bore sighted it at home (at about 30 feet). I put on it a scope iv’e had for 10 or 15 years, Ohuhu 6x24x50 $50. I bought on Amazon a Weaver Savage Axis 48347 one piece scope mount $15. I also bought the only ammo Wally had in stock, Winchester Deer Season XP $20 with $5 rebate. I bought the Axis 2 stainless steel 6.5 Creedmoor (no scope or scope mount) at Walmart for $296 with $50 Savage rebate. SHARE THE JOY OF GUNS WITH YOUR FRIENDS, AND SHOOT RESPONSIBLY.

This Savage Axis II XP, topped with an El Cheapo Nikon scope, beat two other rifles costing over 4x as much. I’m shocked at what this budget (you could almost say beginners) rifle package can do. 1,000 Yards CHEAP! Savage Axis II XP 6.5 Creedmoor
