This rifle is not just a tool; it's a testament to Springfield Armory's commitment to delivering unparalleled accuracy and robust performance right out of the box, ensuring you have the confidence to make the shot that matters.

Why Choose the Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint?

The Model 2020 Waypoint is designed for those who demand the utmost in accuracy, reliability, and lightweight portability from their bolt-action rifle. It bridges the gap between production rifles and custom builds, offering features typically found only on high-end, bespoke firearms. Whether your goal is to consistently hit distant steel targets, pursue big game in challenging terrain, or simply own a rifle that performs flawlessly under any conditions, the Waypoint is built for you.

What sets this rifle apart? It’s a combination of innovative material science, precision manufacturing, and thoughtful ergonomic design. From its premium carbon fiber stock and barrel to its advanced TriggerTech trigger system, every component is selected and integrated to ensure a seamless shooting experience that consistently delivers sub-.75 MOA accuracy.

Unrivaled Accuracy: The .75 MOA Guarantee

One of the most compelling reasons to consider the Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint is its extraordinary .75 MOA accuracy guarantee with match-grade ammunition. This isn't just a marketing claim; it's a measurable promise of precision. For shooters, this means the rifle is capable of placing three shots within a .75-inch group at 100 yards, a level of accuracy often reserved for custom-tuned rifles. This guaranteed performance empowers you to take on challenging shots with greater confidence, knowing your equipment is performing at its peak.

How does Springfield Armory achieve this? It starts with the meticulously crafted components and the tight tolerances maintained throughout the manufacturing process. The harmonious interaction of the premium carbon fiber barrel, the rock-solid action, and the crisp TriggerTech trigger culminates in a rifle that consistently delivers repeatable, match-grade precision.

Lightweight Design for Maximum Portability

Weighing in at a mere 6.09 pounds, the Model 2020 Waypoint is an exceptionally lightweight bolt-action rifle for its class and capabilities. This significant weight reduction is primarily achieved through the innovative use of 100% carbon fiber for both the stock and the barrel.

For hunters traversing rugged backcountry, or competitive shooters needing to quickly transition between positions, the Waypoint's minimal mass is a game-changer. It reduces fatigue during long treks, makes it easier to maneuver in tight spaces, and contributes to quicker target acquisition. Despite its light weight, the rifle maintains excellent balance and stability, crucial for precise shot placement. This thoughtful design ensures that portability never compromises performance.

Advanced Barrel Technology: Carbon Fiber Steel

At the heart of the Model 2020 Waypoint's accuracy is its 20-inch carbon fiber steel barrel. This advanced construction combines the strength and durability of steel with the lightweight properties and thermal stability of carbon fiber. The carbon fiber wrap provides superior rigidity and helps dissipate heat more efficiently than traditional all-steel barrels. This rapid cooling helps maintain consistent accuracy, even during extended strings of fire, preventing point-of-impact shifts due to barrel heating.

The barrel features a 1:10" twist rate, optimized for stabilizing a wide range of popular .308 Winchester and 7.62x51mm NATO bullet weights, from lighter hunting rounds to heavier match-grade projectiles. The barrel is finished with a durable Mil-Spec Green Cerakote, a ceramic-based coating renowned for its exceptional resistance to corrosion, abrasion, and chemicals. This protective layer ensures the rifle can withstand harsh environmental conditions, maintaining its aesthetic appeal and structural integrity for years of reliable use.

Robust and Smooth Action: The Fluted Bolt System

The Model 2020 Waypoint boasts a premium fluted bolt with dual locking lugs, designed for butter-smooth operation and repeatable engagement. The bolt travels effortlessly down EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) raceways, which are precisely machined to ensure minimal friction and consistent cycling. This contributes significantly to the rifle's overall reliability and ease of use, even under stressful conditions.

Further enhancing the rifle's performance is an optimized extraction cam, providing robust and reliable spent casing extraction. This feature is critical for quick follow-up shots and ensures that the rifle functions flawlessly across various ammunition types and environmental conditions. Additionally, the bolt features dual cocking cams for effortless operation, requiring less force to cycle the action, and can be disassembled tool-free for straightforward maintenance and cleaning. This user-friendly design simplifies field stripping and ensures the rifle remains in top working order with minimal hassle.

The Ultimate Trigger: TriggerTech Frictionless Release Technology

A rifle's trigger is often considered the most critical interface between the shooter and the firearm, directly impacting accuracy. The Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint features a top-tier TriggerTech adjustable trigger with their proprietary Frictionless Release Technology. This innovative design eliminates the friction inherent in traditional triggers, resulting in a remarkably crisp, clean break with zero creep or overtravel.

The adjustable pull weight range of 2.5 to 5 pounds allows shooters to fine-tune the trigger to their personal preference, optimizing it for different shooting disciplines or conditions. Whether you prefer a lighter pull for precision target work or a slightly heavier pull for hunting in cold weather with gloves, the TriggerTech trigger provides exceptional control. Furthermore, it incorporates a low-profile, non-snag two-position safety, designed for secure and intuitive operation without interfering with the rifle's sleek lines or snagging on gear.

Ergonomic and Durable Stock: 100% Carbon Fiber with Evergreen Camo

The rifle’s fixed stock is constructed from 100% carbon fiber, contributing to the rifle's overall light weight and exceptional rigidity. Carbon fiber is not only incredibly light but also possesses superior strength and excellent vibration dampening properties, which contribute to reduced felt recoil and improved shooting comfort. The stock's Evergreen Camo finish provides effective concealment in various natural environments, blending seamlessly with foliage and terrain.

The ergonomic design of the stock ensures comfortable handling and consistent cheek weld, critical for repeatable accuracy. Its fixed nature provides maximum stability, eliminating any potential movement that could affect precision, making it an ideal choice for both bench rest shooting and supported field positions.

Versatile Caliber: .308 Win / 7.62x51mm

Chambered in .308 Winchester, which is fully compatible with 7.62x51mm NATO ammunition, the Model 2020 Waypoint offers exceptional versatility. The .308 Win is one of the most popular and proven rifle cartridges worldwide, renowned for its balance of power, accuracy, and manageable recoil. It is an excellent choice for a wide array of applications, including:

• Big Game Hunting: Effective for deer, elk, and other medium to large game.
• Long-Range Target Shooting: Capable of impressive precision at extended distances.
• Tactical Applications: Widely adopted by military and law enforcement for its reliability and effectiveness.

The widespread availability of .308 Win ammunition, both for hunting and target shooting, ensures that you'll always have access to suitable loads for any purpose.

Integrated Features for Enhanced Performance

• SA Radial Brake: The barrel is threaded and comes equipped with a Springfield Armory Radial Muzzle Brake. This highly effective device significantly reduces felt recoil and minimizes muzzle rise, allowing for quicker follow-up shots and better observation of impacts downrange. For those who prefer a different muzzle device or a suppressor, the threaded barrel offers easy customization.
• Picatinny Rail Receiver: The stainless steel receiver is factory-equipped with an integral Picatinny rail. This allows for straightforward and secure mounting of optics, such as scopes and red dot sights, without the need for additional bases or adapters. The robust mounting platform ensures your chosen optic remains zeroed even under rigorous use.
• Included Accessories: The Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint comes complete with a magazine and a durable rifle case, providing immediate usability and protection for your investment from day one.

Its full-size frame and 41.50" overall length strike a balance between stability and maneuverability. The Mil-Spec Green Cerakote finish on both the barrel and receiver provides an additional layer of protection, making the rifle incredibly durable and resistant to the elements.
