Here, we present a suite of 3D MHD simulations of the Tayler instability in a rotating, stratified cylinder to model the local dynamics near the rotation axis of a star. To test the assumptions of different reduced models, we investigate how this instability saturates, and how the saturated state varies across different parameter regimes relevant to stellar interiors.
