Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match .308 with Douglas Barrel

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match .308 with Douglas Barrel represents a precision-oriented evolution of the classic M14 platform. Built by Springfield Armory with a match-grade Douglas barrel chambered in .308 Winchester, this rifle is designed for shooters who demand consistent sub-MOA accuracy at extended distances without sacrificing the reliability of the M1A operating system. Each component is selected for dimensional consistency and durability, making it a turnkey solution for long-range precision work.

Overview

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match .308 with Douglas Barrel is a semi-automatic rifle that bridges the gap between service rifle heritage and modern precision. It features a heavy, air-gauged Douglas barrel that is hand-fitted to the receiver, ensuring optimal harmonic consistency from shot to shot. The rifle is built on Springfield Armory’s forged receiver and includes a National Match front sight and a hooded aperture rear sight for precise windage and elevation adjustments. The stock is a synthetic, multi-position adjustable unit with a cheek rest and a rubber buttpad, providing a stable platform for both prone and bench shooting.

Features & Specs

This rifle is engineered for repeatable accuracy. The Douglas barrel is the centerpiece: a 22-inch, medium-heavy contour, 1:10 twist rate barrel with a target crown. The barrel is free-floated within the handguard to eliminate contact points that could shift point of impact. The two-stage National Match trigger is adjustable and breaks cleanly at approximately 4.5 to 5.0 pounds. The bolt and operating rod are finished to match-grade tolerances, reducing friction and improving lock-up consistency.
