This rifle is specifically designed to solve the critical challenges faced by precision shooters: achieving guaranteed accuracy, maintaining reliability in diverse conditions, reducing carrying fatigue, and ensuring a crisp, consistent trigger pull. From its innovative carbon fiber components to its Mil-Spec Cerakote finishes, every aspect of the Waypoint is optimized for peak performance in the field.

Exceptional Accuracy: The Foundation of the Model 2020 Waypoint

The cornerstone of the Model 2020 Waypoint's appeal is its formidable accuracy guarantee. Springfield Armory pledges a .75 MOA accuracy guarantee with match-grade ammunition and a skilled shooter, a testament to its precision engineering. This level of accuracy is typically found in much more expensive custom builds, making the Waypoint an extraordinary value proposition. But how does it achieve such consistent precision?

• Premium Carbon Fiber Wrapped Barrel: The 20-inch fluted barrel is a marvel of modern firearm technology. Crafted from stainless steel and then meticulously wrapped in a proprietary carbon fiber sleeve, it offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. This innovative construction helps dissipate heat efficiently, reducing barrel whip and improving shot-to-shot consistency during rapid firing sequences. The fluting further enhances cooling and reduces overall weight without compromising rigidity.
• SA Radial Brake: The barrel is capped with Springfield Armory's SA Radial Brake, which effectively mitigates recoil and muzzle rise. This allows for faster follow-up shots and helps maintain target acquisition, contributing significantly to the rifle's overall shootability and precision.
• Optimal Twist Rate: With a 1:10" twist rate, the 20" barrel is perfectly optimized for stabilizing a wide range of popular .308 Winchester and 7.62x51mm NATO bullet weights, ensuring superb accuracy across various ammunition types.

Revolutionary Bolt System for Unmatched Reliability

A rifle's action is its heart, and the Model 2020 Waypoint features an action built for smooth operation and unflinching reliability under any conditions.

• Dual Locking Lugs and EDM Raceways: The fluted bolt incorporates dual locking lugs that engage smoothly with the receiver. The receiver itself boasts Electric Discharge Machined (EDM) raceways, which are incredibly precise and ensure the bolt glides effortlessly and consistently. This meticulous machining process results in a butter-smooth bolt throw, crucial for rapid cycling and maintaining focus on the target.
• Optimized Extraction Cam: An optimized extraction cam provides robust and reliable extraction of spent casings, even in adverse conditions or with stubborn brass. This crucial feature prevents common malfunctions and ensures continuous, dependable operation when it matters most.
• Dual Cocking Cams: The dual cocking cams contribute to the ease of operation, reducing the force required to cock the firing pin. This makes the rifle feel lighter and smoother to cycle, minimizing shooter fatigue during extended shooting sessions.
• Toolless Disassembly: For field maintenance and cleaning, the bolt is designed for toolless disassembly, allowing for quick and easy access to critical components, ensuring the rifle remains in top operational condition with minimal fuss.

The Ultimate Carbon Fiber Stock: Lightweight & Ergonomic

One of the most striking features of the Model 2020 Waypoint is its fixed carbon fiber stock, finished in an eye-catching Evergreen Camo pattern.

• 100% Carbon Fiber Construction: This stock is not just lightweight; it's incredibly rigid and durable, providing a stable platform for precision shooting. The inherent properties of carbon fiber help absorb recoil and resist changes in temperature and humidity, maintaining accuracy regardless of environmental shifts.
• Evergreen Camo Finish: The unique Evergreen Camo pattern offers excellent concealment in diverse natural environments, making it ideal for hunters who blend into their surroundings.
• Exceptional Portability: At an astonishing 6.15 pounds (without optics), this rifle redefines what's possible for a full-size precision bolt-action. This featherlight design significantly reduces fatigue during long hunts or treks, making it an ideal companion for mountain hunters or anyone covering vast distances. Its OAL (Overall Length) of 41.50" strikes a perfect balance between maneuverability and barrel length for ballistic performance.

TriggerTech Trigger: A New Standard in Feel and Precision

The trigger is often cited as the most critical interface between the shooter and the rifle, and the Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint delivers a truly exceptional experience with its TriggerTech trigger.

• Frictionless Release Technology: This advanced trigger employs TriggerTech's proprietary Frictionless Release Technology, which virtually eliminates creep and overtravel, resulting in an incredibly crisp, clean break. This allows shooters to achieve maximum accuracy by minimizing any disruption to the sight picture during the shot.
• Adjustable Pull Weight: The trigger is adjustable from 2.50 to 5 pounds, allowing users to fine-tune it to their personal preference and specific shooting discipline, whether it's a lighter pull for target work or a slightly heavier one for field safety.
• Low-Profile, Non-Snag Safety: The two-position safety is designed to be low-profile and non-snag, preventing accidental activation or interference with gear during movement.

Uncompromising Durability and Finish

The Model 2020 Waypoint is built to withstand the rigors of any environment, thanks to its high-quality materials and protective finishes.

• Mil-Spec Green Cerakote Finish: Both the stainless steel barrel and the stainless steel receiver feature a durable Mil-Spec Green Cerakote finish. Cerakote is renowned for its exceptional resistance to abrasion, corrosion, chemicals, and impact, providing superior protection against the elements and ensuring the rifle maintains its pristine appearance and functional integrity for years to come.
• Integrated Picatinny Rail: The receiver comes equipped with an integral Picatinny rail, providing a robust and stable platform for mounting optics. This feature saves users the hassle and additional cost of purchasing and installing a separate rail, ensuring immediate optic readiness.
