Why not the Axis? My kids have all bought them as their first rifles and they are fine. As long as you find the right load for it, they shoot good. I know they aren't the best quality or smoothest actions, but in my opinion they make a good first rifle, especially for the price.Nothing wrong with a Savage as long as it’s not the axis. As recommended I’d go to a gun shop and handle a few brands and see what you like. Tikka, Howa, Remington all make great rifles.
