Savage Axis II Scout 7.62x39 - Any owners?

++1 ^^ on Dr Deals. Very rapid shipping of goods. I've dealt with him for over 5 years with NO probs.
As for "Windex" it NO longer has Ammonia, which was the reason for the 'Old advice' to use for cleaning Corrosives. Still might help but better to run lots of hot water thru barrel and action, then clean as normal. Be sure to oil correctly. I went with the RAR in x39 and Always strip the barrel and action completely "Just to be sure".

Here are 3 3-shot groups shot today at 100 yards with plain ol' Barnaul FMJ. For factory ammo, I'm ok with that. Also shot 2 groups with Norinco Red Box. Not so happy with those!
Unfortunately, it seems there is some sort of dust up somewhere in Eastern Europe, so no Barnaul anywhere near where I live.

Good to know regarding the Windex. I'll have to switch to water or something else.

Nothing wrong with Just Being Sure lol

I use the Mag3d 22-250 6 round mags and they feed great. Just a little fragile

Sorry for question after 13 years. Is your Savage 7.72x39? Have you used this mag in original stock? Have you done any mods to your original stock to fit this mag

Should be three pictures below - that used Savage Axis that I received had a MAG3D.CA 22-250x6 round magazine included. Is no loaded rounds handy - can see there is six previously fired S&B 17 cases (7.62x39) in that magazine - seems to fit and feed just fine, but defeats the point of "one-hand carry" with the distance it protrudes below the stock - may be more or less important to various people.

Thanks for detailed info, sorry for previous message, didn't reach next page at the time of writing and sending it.

I put my rifle into a MDT LSS stock and 3D printed an adapter for MDT 6mm BR magazines so they will hold and feed 10 rounds of 7.62x39mm. Love being able to use AICS magazines.

do you have pictures of final design?

Just saw the post. Yes rifle is stock, 7.62x39 and the mag3D 6 round mags work great in 22-250. I bought a MDT chassis and a MDT AICS 22-250 mag but it didn’t work as well so I’m back to factory parts and the 3D mag. Anyone know what the muzzle thread is? If I ever get the brake off I’d like to try a flash hider or linear comp
