Savage has always made very accurate budget guns. The Model 110 was named so because it was $110. I have a 110 "package gun" that has been superb. I paid $300 for it in 1994 ish. Somewhere I've seen an advert or something that basically stated the secret was in the adjustable barrel nut, which allows easy and perfect headspacing performed by a monkey. That said, I have no desire to own an Axis.
Funny that the 110 is now their top of the line gun. I've always always always wanted a pre-64 Winchester Model 70, but I've never bought one because the 110 does what it does so perfectly. It's the only non Winchester rifle I ever loved.
But hey, we're here to trash talk rifles. My pick is the garbage rod, also known as the Mosin Nagant. Anything that sold at gun shows from a trash can marked "Take Your Pick, $50" must be worthless. And after every gun show, I'd see guys show up at the range shooting shotgun pattern groups at 50 or 100 yards, saying, "hey this is pretty accurate." Meanwhile, my Savage 110 is putting out one-hole groups. smh. The only think the garbage rod had going for it was the price of the gun and the ammo in the 1990s.
