[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 2912110, member: 22335"] I have similar feelings for the original Axis, which the OP is looking at buying. My daughter has one in .223. I have put in a trigger kit and polished the trigger, and it still has a horrible trigger. You WILL want to buy the $110 Timney upgrade if you get an Axis. Last year, I took an Axis in 30-06 belonging to a coworker's husband and accurized it. I stiffened and painted the stock, swapped scope and rings, tried a trigger kit, and eventually swapped in a Timney. For the end cost of the rifle - with my labor being free - you could buy a MUCH better rifle. Handloads helped, but it still isn't as consistent as I would like. The Axis II has a better Accutrigger, but the rest of the rifle is the same. [/QUOTE]
