where are all the Axis II rifles?

$499, good enough for deer out to 150m, all wood and metal, factory ammo is cheap so no need to reload, recoil is mild, and if you wait for a sale they go on for $375....

I doubt the 7.62 as a deer round (admittedly my personal preference)..... I doubt it as a bear round (bears don't die easy after being hit)........ But I would absolutely not even think of using it as a potential moose round..... Jmop
 
remember, he's on disability. he's small stature and slight of frame because of health issues, one of which is pain and that makes him recoil sensitive.

I'm not saying the requirements are easy, but if there is a will, there is a way and it most likely will mean used.

as for the 7.62x39, deer I would have no problem but definitely not ideal for bear or moose. as always though, it's about bullet placement. :)
 
If shooting hurts, and I mean no offense by this, hunting is the wrong thing to get into.... A .308 doesnt kick much at all, my 9 year old cousin shoots mine at the camp and SHE is a small girl.

EDIT
Your best bet is to get him to take his crossbow course and try that... Shoot a good distance and no kick at all.

Your answer imop is 7-08 ...... But get a decent platform and quit having reloading fantasies at 100 yards.....
 
Ok time to tick off a bunch of you. Why would anyone suggest a wood stocked gun in this day and age?

Wood swells when wet, shrinks when dry, often cracks over time, it dents, nicks and chips if dropped. For hunting guns synthetic stocks are just better they are a immune for the effects of weather and generally able to take more use abuse. IMO

And yes I know about stock flex on an axis and yes they will crack if you drop them from a tree.

I'd rather not have a wood stock rifle that changes impact points with the weather of the day.

+ 1,

I've filled the stock of my Axis with foam insulation, it's now more rigid, way better.

and if you drop you rifle from a tree forget the scope !!! Just don't drop it :)

Perhaps he should be looking at a light weight semi-automatic...
