The .30-06 Springfield has been putting meat in the freezer for well over a century, and the Savage Axis 2 Pro Forest SP wraps that classic cartridge in a package that feels far more modern than its price class suggests. The 20-inch heavy sporter barrel is spiral fluted, a detail Savage reserved for the Forest SP models, and it comes threaded 5/8×24 from the factory. Whether you plan to run a suppressor or a muzzle brake down the road, you will not need a trip to the gunsmith to get there. The Gun Metal Bronze Cerakote on the barrel and receiver shrugs off rain and rough handling better than a traditional blued finish, which matters when you hunt in real weather instead of ideal conditions.
The standout here is Savage's AccuTrigger, which you can adjust yourself from roughly 2.5 to 6 pounds. A clean, crisp trigger does more for practical accuracy than almost any other feature on a hunting rifle, and it is rare to find one this good at this level. Savage also uses thread-in headspacing on these actions, a big part of why their rifles have a reputation for shooting well straight out of the box. A one-piece 0 MOA rail comes installed on the receiver, so mounting a scope is quick and simple, and the redesigned bolt handle gives you solid purchase when your hands are cold or gloved.
The synthetic stock wears Savage's Forest SP camo with an added textured coating, plus ambidextrous palm swells and grip panels that keep the rifle planted in wet conditions. At 6.8 pounds with a 40.5-inch overall length, it carries comfortably on long walks to the stand without feeling whippy on the shot. The detachable 4-round box magazine makes loading and unloading at the truck fast and fuss-free, and two sling studs come standard. For deer, elk, bear, or hogs, this is a lot of well-thought-out rifle for the money.
No iron sights or scope are included on this model. It does come with a one-piece 0 MOA rail already mounted on the receiver, so you can bolt on scope rings and glass without buying separate bases. Most buyers pair it with a 3-9x or similar hunting scope and are ready for the range the same day.
Yes, the 20-inch barrel is threaded 5/8×24 from the factory, which is the standard thread pattern for most .30 caliber suppressors and brakes. No gunsmithing needed, just remove the thread protector and spin on your muzzle device.
It is. Savage designed the AccuTrigger so the owner can adjust pull weight in a range of roughly 2.5 to 6 pounds using the included procedure in the manual. It is a two-stage design with a blade safety in the trigger face, and it is one of the main reasons these rifles shoot so well out of the box.
The .30-06 Springfield is one of the most versatile big game cartridges ever made. With the right bullet it handles everything from whitetail and hogs up to elk, moose, and black bear. Ammo is widely available in a huge range of bullet weights, which makes this chambering a smart pick for a do-it-all hunting rifle.
