Savage Axis Picatinny Rail – 0 & 20 MOA Scope Mounts
Savage Axis Picatinny Rail – Secure Scope Mounting for Axis, XP & Edge Rifles
A reliable optic mount is the backbone of any accurate rifle build. If you're running a Savage Axis, Axis II, XP, or Edge, upgrading to a dedicated Picatinny rail ensures rock-solid scope alignment, consistent zero, and full customization for your shooting setup.
At Mounts Plus, we offer top-tier Savage Axis Picatinny rails from trusted brands like EGW, precision-machined for repeatable accuracy and available in 0 MOA and 20 MOA configurations. Whether you’re hunting, plinking, or setting up for long-range, we’ve got the mount to match your rifle and optic.
🔧 Why Choose a Picatinny Rail for Savage Axis?
The MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail system offers unmatched versatility for rifle scopes, red dots, night vision, and more. Here’s what makes it the go-to choice for Savage shooters:
- Universal optic compatibility (works with all Picatinny-compatible rings and bases)
- Enhanced scope security and consistent return-to-zero
- Improved modularity for accessories like backup sights or lasers
- Durability under recoil from heavy calibers like .308, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .30-06
Our rails are built to match the receiver profile of the Savage Axis, ensuring flawless fit and reliable function.
📐 0 MOA vs. 20 MOA: What’s the Difference?
- 0 MOA Picatinny Rails are flat and perfect for standard hunting scopes and close-to-mid-range shooting.
- 20 MOA Rails add elevation adjustment built into the mount—ideal for long-range optics and dialing out to 800+ yards without maxing your turret travel.
Choose based on your scope’s elevation range and your typical shooting distance.
