Thank you for taking the time to put this video together and sharing. I recently bought a Savage Axis 30-06...cleaned it before taking it out to the range, but never gave the bolt a second thought until after I took my 5th shot trying to sight it and all I heard was "click"...Having never taken the bolt apart before, I was glad to have found your video. Although some of portions were out of frame; I was still able to follow along as I took mine apart, cleaned and reassembled. Hope it did the trick...will see tomorrow at the range!

Great point!

This was a really useful video, thank you kindly for sharing. My Savage Axis (also in 270 Win) has about 1100 rounds down the pipe and today was the first time I tore the bolt apart to clean it and see what's happening in there. Everything looked good; wiped 'er down, hit the parts with some fresh Rem Oil and re-assembled it. One thing I might add (for anyone who reads this comment) is to make sure you test the assembly once it's all back together by dry firing the rifle. I accidentally installed my bolt handle backwards the first time, slid it back into the receiver and had a WTF moment when it wouldn't cock. I removed the bolt again, gave the bolt handle a 180 and I was back in business. Glad I test fired so my WTF moment didn't happen out in the field. Cheers from Canada!

Hmm not to sure? Maybe take the spring out and just see if there is anything inhibiting the pin from sticking out of the bolt face

the lug has two different lengths,in the beginning of the video the short lug end is down,after reassembly the long end is down. Which way is correct since the lug can be spun with the short on the bottom or the top.

Would you recommend putting lube for extreme cold weather on this rifle? (Fairbanks Alaska winter is an average of -20 for 4 months but still love going to shoot) so far I put "Arctic" lube on both my Glock 40 and AR-15. But this bolt is kinda tricky and well don't want to go to the process if the lube won't work on this rifle.

I have the same rifle but cocking it is very heavy, how would I make that any smoother, at first I thought the spring inside the bolt is too tight but it doesn’t seem adjustable. Anyone?

@BROTUNED

Жыл бұрын

The spring that’s giving the tension is the firing pin spring and I honestly wouldn’t modify that it could cause you to have light strikes. What you could do is polish the ramp and any interfacing surfaces. That would make it a lot smoother for sure or just dry fire and run the bolt a lot. This will smooth things out as well as build muscle memory on the trigger and finger which will help more than you’d think

How far is the firing pun supposed to be out in the fire position? Mine doesn't punch the primer deep enough? Some rounds don't fire with a shallow ding in the middle. Issues???

When un-cocking the bolt make sure your other fingers are not near the cocking pin - my spring was so tight when I pushed it up to uncock it the cocking pin pinched and trapped my middle finger and it took me a minute to move the pin to get it free. Holy snickies.

Axis Creedmore is brand new and the spring on the uncocking mechanism when uncocked looks bunch up and is really tight. Should it be this tight? Re-cocking it is going to be really tough based on how tight it is.

here's a wee tip I just found while cleaning my Savage Axis/Edge the bolt is a precision part right, I disassembled it to clean it, an fuk me upside down back an forward getting the damned thing recocked was, to put it mildly "a BITCH" well through trial and error I found a wee trick that might help others in the future, When you have the bolt reassembled and ready to recock and slide into the action, but christ it's hard to get the pin into the cocked position, now I'm not weak nor do I have soft hands, but christ "I" could not get the thing in the cocked position, " the trick is don't tighten the bolt nut, in fact leave it loose, then cock it and slide into the action, but first make sure there in no ammo in the rifle, pull the trigger, to discharge position when inserted into the action, then the hex screw at the back of the bolt will be clear, and you can now insert the allen key and tighten the bolt assembly fully, just thought the Axis/Edge guy's out there could use this.

A big shout out to you for this procedure. I plan on running a single-shot feed ramp in this chamber but do not know Savage Axis system too well. Do you see any issues with taking out the ejector and keeping it out? I dont need it for ejection purposes but if it has a secondary purpose of keeping the bolt interior clean and/or putting pressure against the datum or bolt hasps then I'll just leave it be. Thanks! how did that Axis shoot for you, BTW? Seems like a nice affordable factory action.

Thanks my axis with hand loads shoots .5 to .75 5 shot groups all day long they are very under rated and strong actions. Unlike the open top Remington’s and savages they are a lot stiffer and also did some videos with a Remington model 770 with the same style action and it too is a tack driver but the bolt and bushing system in the Remington is total trash but it’s a great rifle for long range where there is no pressure to quickly chamber another round fast.

No man I was watching some of your more recent 22 long rifle stuff. You know a lot of the guys down at the local sandpit Scoff at me when I say, "if there is one major thing that I contribute to how well I shoot, it would be 22LR". It helped me get rid of a flinch that started early in life, they keep cost down, there are very few restrictions on them, and most of all, they are fun as hell to shoot. I don't need to get ringcut and my shoulder broken to prove that I am a man. And I won't hesitate to say I'm a better shooter because of 22LR. Thanks for the link brother. But you have me salivating over that CZ 22LR rifle 🤣.

a friend purchased a used Savage 30.06 bolt gun and is complaining that the bold wiggles way too much forward and back and side to side when in battery with a round in the chamber.. He didn't know he purchased a Savage, I was able to determine this by talking to him about the looks of the rifle.. I have yet to see it but it will be turning into a project. I'm wondering if it's missing lugs or if that bolt take down screw is loose.

Haha. It ain't easy. :-) Make sure the spring is in and then put the bb ontop. I used a very small standard or flathead screwdriver to hold the bb down while I reinserted the extractor with the bb indent on the bottom. Slide the extractor (flat edge inside) in over the bb while it pushing the screwdriver back so the the bb stays in under the extractor and snaps in place. Do this working inside an on end large cardboard box (use a light if need be) so you don't loose the bb if it flies off and it probably will a few times before you get it. Like I said, it ain't easy. Don't lose the bb. Hope this helps.

It would have been better if the work was done in frame.
