Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel

For the precision rifleman who demands military-grade reliability with match-grade accuracy, the Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel stands as a definitive platform. Built on the legendary M14 action and refined for long-range engagement, this rifle delivers the mechanical precision required for competition, duty, or serious target work. Springfield Armory has paired its proven gas-operated system with a premium Douglas barrel to produce consistent sub-MOA performance without sacrificing the rugged dependability that defines the M1A lineage.

Overview

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel represents a deliberate evolution of the classic M21 sniper system. It combines the time-tested M1A operating system with a heavy-profile, hand-lapped Douglas barrel chambered in .308 Winchester. The result is a semi-automatic platform that provides the shooter with exceptional accuracy at extended distances, while retaining the rapid follow-up shot capability that only a self-loading rifle can offer. Each rifle is assembled using precision-matched components, including a National Match trigger group and a specially bedded stock, to ensure that the inherent accuracy of the barrel is fully realized.

Features & Specs

Every component of the Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is selected to eliminate variables and maximize precision. The Douglas barrel is air-gauged and hand-lapped, providing a consistent bore that minimizes bullet deformation and promotes uniform velocity. This barrel is paired with a forged steel receiver and a two-stage National Match trigger that breaks cleanly at approximately 4.5 to 5 pounds. The rifle is equipped with a heavy, glass-bedded synthetic or walnut stock (depending on configuration) that provides a stable, repeatable bedding surface. The front and rear sights are National Match-grade, with a hooded aperture rear and a precision front post. The rifle is also drilled and tapped for scope mounting, accommodating modern optics without compromising the iron sight system.
