Savage Axis Replacement Stock - Boyds Pro Varmint - 1000 Yards for $500 | The Social Regressive
To ensure repeatable accuracy and a comfortable prone position, I am throwing out the plastic Savage Axis stock. With a little work, this Boyds Pro Varmint stock should be just about perfect.
The "stock" Savage Axis stock is a classic sporter shape, and it's made of molded plastic. This plastic seems to be a higher quality than what Savage put on some of their older rifles. Despite that, I am not going to trust its rigidity to a 1000 yard competition.
Boyds Hardwood Gun Stocks offers several laminate stocks for the Axis. Laminate is very strong and will resist warping and bending. The shape that I want is dictated by usage: I will be competing in the prone position, so I need a stock that has a vertical grip and a heavy forearm. The Boyds Pro Varmint (formerly Tacti-Cool) fits the bill. With a little work, I can turn this into a comfortable stock that ensures accuracy.
I will make three different types of modifications: (1) Functional Modifications, (2) Ergonomic Modifications, and (3) Aesthetic Modifications.
Functional Modifications will include relief of the barrel channel, a pillar bedding job, and a glass bedding job.
Ergonomic modifications will include adding spacers to boost the length of pull, reshaping of the comb, and reshaping the pistol grip.
Aesthetic mods will include straightening the crooked lines left by the CNC mill and reshaping the wrist.
