Overview

This Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is a factory-built precision rifle that honors the lineage of the M21 sniper system. It features a heavy, hand-lapped Douglas barrel chambered in .308 Winchester (7.62x51mm), a national match front and rear sight assembly, and a fully adjustable trigger group. The rifle is assembled on a forged 8620 carbon steel receiver with a glass-bedded, hand-finished American walnut stock. Every component is selected to minimize shot dispersion and maximize repeatability, making this a serious tool for precision shooting disciplines.

Features & Specs

The defining characteristic of this rifle is the Douglas barrel, a premium blank that is air-gauged, hand-lapped, and chambered to tight tolerances. The barrel is free-floated within the stock to eliminate harmonic interference. The system is complemented by a two-stage national match trigger, a heavy profile barrel with a 1:11 twist rate, and a proprietary muzzle brake to reduce recoil and muzzle rise. The receiver is drilled and tapped for optics mounting, and the rifle includes a standard 10-round magazine.
