I clicked on the 1st one here, & it said something about a 1500 action in an Axiom stock.

I have seen and played with one at the local Gander Mountain. It is a 1500 action wearing a different stock. The action felt fairly smooth. All in all it is a typical Howa, which I feel is a good gun. The stock design is a spin on an AR stock. I thought it was comfortable and felt good.

I saw a guy on a hunting show use one while predator hunting and he hit what he was shooting at so it seemed pretty accurate.

Didn't get the gun because it was snow camo and the snow has been sparse in the parts the last few years.
