SAV 32379 AXIS 2 PRO FOREST SP CAMO COMP 400L

Savage Arms AXIS 2 PRO Bolt Action Rifle — Forest SP Camo, .400 Legend

The SAV 32379 AXIS 2 PRO FOREST SP CAMO COMP 400L is a factory-chambered .400 Legend bolt gun built for hunters who demand precision without the custom-gun price tag. This rifle pairs Savage’s user-adjustable AccuTrigger with a threaded, fluted barrel and a one-piece rail, all wrapped in a textured Forest SP camo stock that actually grips wet hands. Per Savage specs, the action uses thread-in headspacing for consistent lock-up, and the updated bolt handle delivers positive, fast cycling. This is a production rifle that punches above its class on paper and in the field.

Key Features

• User-Adjustable AccuTrigger — Why it matters: You can dial trigger pull weight from 2.5 to 6 lbs without a gunsmith, giving you a crisp break that reduces the chance of pulling a shot at 300 yards.
• Thread-In Headspacing — Why it matters: This eliminates barrel-to-receiver slop, improving consistency from shot to shot and making barrel swaps repeatable without lapping.
• Threaded Barrel with Muzzle Cap — Why it matters: The 1/2×28 threads let you mount a suppressor or brake in seconds, cutting recoil and keeping your spotter clean on follow-ups.
• One-Piece Scope Rail — Why it matters: A solid rail means no shift under recoil, and you can mount optics without worrying about base alignment — critical for maintaining zero on a .400 Legend that thumps.
• Textured Forest SP Camo Stock — Why it matters: The added coating gives you positive grip in rain or snow, and the camo pattern breaks up your outline against timber edges and field rows.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the hunter who wants a lightweight, straight-walled platform for states that restrict bottle-neck cartridges. It’s also for the precision-minded shooter who appreciates a factory gun with a trigger you can tune, a barrel you can suppress, and a stock that doesn’t slip. If you’re running a .400 Legend for deer or hogs inside 250 yards, this setup minimizes variables so you can focus on wind and holdover.

Pros & Cons

• Pro: AccuTrigger is factory-adjustable to match your preference — no aftermarket part needed.
• Pro: Threaded barrel (1/2×28) is suppressor-ready out of the box.
• Pro: Textured camo stock provides better traction than standard synthetic stocks in wet conditions.
• Con: The synthetic stock has some flex under heavy bipod load — a chassis upgrade (like the Oryx or MDT) would stiffen it for consistent bag contact at longer ranges.

Comparison: AXIS 2 PRO vs. Competitors

Feature	Savage AXIS 2 PRO	Ruger American Predator	Howa 1500 Mini Action
Trigger	AccuTrigger (2.5-6 lbs adjustable)	Ruger Marksman (3-5 lbs adjustable)	Howa HACT (2-stage, fixed ~3.5 lbs)
Barrel Thread	1/2×28, factory threaded	5/8×24, factory threaded	1/2×28, factory threaded
Stock Texture	Forest SP camo with textured coating	Black synthetic, smooth	Black synthetic, smooth

Price	$613.66	$579.00	$549.00
Best For	Hunters wanting grip + adjustable trigger	Budget precision with aftermarket support	Light carry with smooth action

The AXIS 2 PRO beats both competitors on trigger adjustability and stock texture — the Ruger and Howa don’t offer a textured camo option. The Howa is lighter, but its fixed trigger weight limits fine-tuning for long-range work.

FAQ

What is the twist rate on the SAV 32379 AXIS 2 PRO .400 Legend?

Per Savage specs, the barrel has a 1:16 twist rate, optimized for the .400 Legend’s bullet weights (typically 180-240 grains). This twist stabilizes factory loads like Winchester Deer Season XP and Federal Fusion.

Does this rifle come with scope rings or a base?

It ships with a one-piece rail (integral to the receiver), but no rings or scope. You’ll need to add your own rings — standard 1-inch or 30mm depending on your optic.

Can I use this for deer hunting in straight-wall cartridge states?

Yes. The .400 Legend is legal in states like Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, and Michigan that restrict straight-walled cartridges for deer. It delivers energy comparable to a .44 Magnum with better trajectory.

Is the AccuTrigger safe for field carry?

Yes. The AccuTrigger has a built-in safety blade that prevents the sear from releasing unless the trigger is pressed deliberately. Even at the lowest 2.5-lb setting, it won’t fire if bumped.
