Overview

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is a factory-built precision rifle that bridges the gap between a service rifle and a custom match gun. It utilizes the proven M1A gas-operated action, known for its durability in adverse conditions, combined with a heavy-profile Douglas barrel that is air-gauged and hand-lapped for uniformity. The rifle features a McMillan fiberglass stock with an adjustable cheekpiece and a full-length aluminum bedding block, ensuring a stable platform for consistent shot placement. This is not a modified service rifle; it is a dedicated long-range match system from the factory floor.

Features & Specs

• Douglas Barrel: 22-inch heavy match-grade barrel, 1:10 twist, air-gauged, hand-lapped, and cryogenically treated for enhanced accuracy and barrel life. The barrel is free-floated within the handguard to eliminate contact points that degrade precision.
• Stock System: McMillan A2 or A3 fiberglass stock with full-length aluminum bedding block, adjustable cheekpiece, and sling swivel studs. The stock provides a rigid mounting surface for the action and minimizes flex during firing.
• Trigger and Controls: Two-stage military trigger with a crisp break, adjustable from 4.5 to 5.5 pounds. Oversized bolt handle and extended magazine release for rapid manipulation under match conditions. Includes a National Match front sight and a hooded aperture rear sight.

Additional specifications include a forged steel receiver, chrome-lined gas cylinder, and a 10-round box magazine. The rifle weighs approximately 11.3 pounds unloaded, providing stability during prone and bench shooting. The overall length is 44.25 inches. This Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is chambered exclusively for .308 Winchester/7.62x51mm NATO.

Who It’s For

This rifle is built for the precision rifle shooter who values the M1A operating system but requires match-grade accuracy. It is intended for high-power service rifle competitions, long-range target shooting, and shooters who train for precision gas-gun applications. If you are a competitor in NRA High Power or CMP matches, or a civilian marksman who wants a production rifle capable of holding its own against custom bolt guns, this Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is a direct tool for that purpose. It is also appropriate for law enforcement or military personnel who need a semi-automatic precision rifle for designated marksman roles. This is not a hunting rifle or a general-purpose carbine; it is a specialized instrument for deliberate, accurate fire at distance.
