About the Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint

The Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint is a lightweight precision bolt-action rifle designed to bridge the gap between backcountry hunting and long-range precision shooting. Featuring an optional carbon fiber-wrapped barrel and a carbon fiber composite stock with M-LOK attachment points, the Waypoint weighs as little as 6 pounds 12 ounces in its lightest configuration while delivering a .75 MOA accuracy guarantee. The rifle incorporates a TriggerTech adjustable trigger, Springfield Armory's proprietary SA Radial Brake, and a fluted bolt with dual cocking cams for smooth, reliable operation. The action is dual-pillar bedded in the stock for consistent accuracy across temperature and humidity conditions.

Springfield Armory surprised the firearms industry by entering the bolt-action precision rifle market after over 40 years focused on semi-automatic platforms, and the Waypoint's .75 MOA guarantee immediately positioned it as a serious competitor in the lightweight precision hunting category.
