Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 With Douglas Barrel

When you pick up the Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel, you feel the precision before you even shoulder it. This is not just another M1A variant; it is a dedicated long-range tool built around a match-grade Douglas barrel. For shooters who demand consistent sub-MOA accuracy from a semi-automatic platform, this rifle delivers the goods without the fuss of a custom build. We have spent time behind this gun on the range, and it rewards patience and good fundamentals with tight groups at extended distances.

Overview

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is a modern interpretation of the legendary M21 sniper system. Springfield Armory starts with their proven M1A action and fits it with a heavy, air-gauged Douglas barrel that is hand-chambered and cryogenically treated. The result is a rifle that retains the familiar feel and reliability of the M1A but offers the accuracy potential needed for competitive shooting or precision tactical work. It comes standard with a McMillan fiberglass stock, a two-stage match trigger, and a Picatinny optic rail, making it ready for glass right out of the case.

Features & Specs

• Barrel: 22-inch Douglas match-grade barrel, air-gauged, hand-chambered, and cryogenically treated for consistent accuracy and extended barrel life.
• Stock: McMillan A2 or A3 fiberglass stock with aluminum bedding block, providing a rigid, free-floated platform for the barrel.
• Trigger: Two-stage match trigger with a crisp, clean break, adjustable for over-travel by a qualified gunsmith.

• Receiver: Forged steel receiver with integral Picatinny rail for mounting optics without adding weight or height to the action.
• Caliber: 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester), with a detachable box magazine holding 10 rounds.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the shooter who has outgrown off-the-shelf hunting rifles and wants a dedicated precision semi-auto without stepping into a custom gunsmith build.
