Recently I one a savage axis in a 7mm-08. Normally I wouldn’t even keep a rifle like this but my daughter drew the ticket for me to win. So since I plan on keeping it I want to turn it into something I might actually use. So far I’ve swapped out the trigger for a jard, installed a bolt lift kit, new stock, bolt handle, pulled of the cheaper two peace scope base and scope that came on it. I’m looking at replacing the barrel. I’ve seen some that have had the action worked on to take a standard recoil lug, and was wondering if anyone has done this and did it gain anything over the factory lug set up?
