[QUOTE="Buck Fever, post: 1959217, member: 113501"] I have been fooling around with an Axis II XP. I faced the front of the receiver for a traditional recoil lug, bought a bolt handle and bolt sleeve from Glades. The tolerance stack wasn't perfect so I bought a new bolt head baffle and filed it to fit (length). Surprisingly that has made the bolt lift light and the action is pretty smooth. The Accutrigger with a spring mod is nice and light, very nice for a budget setup. The one negative about Savage is they don't want to sell replacement parts so it is hard to experiment with things like bolt lift kits, if you go there you might not be able to replace the spring you have to cut if you don't like it. Personally I like to keep the original stuff and buy new to modify so I can fully reverse mods. It is going to be pretty cool when it is finished but Savage isn't making it easy. [/QUOTE]
