Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 With Douglas Barrel

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel represents a precision evolution of the legendary M14 platform. Built by Springfield Armory, this semi-automatic rifle is engineered for shooters who demand sub-MOA accuracy at extended distances without sacrificing the reliability of a battle-proven action. The Douglas barrel, hand-fitted to the receiver, transforms the M1A into a dedicated long-range tool suitable for competition, precision shooting, and tactical application.

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 features a heavy, air-gauged Douglas barrel that is cryogenically treated and hand-lapped for consistent bore dimensions. The rifle retains the classic M1A gas-operated action but upgrades the stock, trigger, and barrel to match-grade standards. This is not a modified surplus rifle; it is a new production firearm from Springfield Armory, assembled specifically for long-range performance in .308 Winchester.

Features & Specs

The defining component of this rifle is the Douglas barrel, which is known for its accuracy in competitive shooting. The barrel is 22 inches long, medium-heavy contour, and features a 1:10 twist rate optimized for 168 to 175 grain match ammunition. The rifle is chambered in .308 Winchester and feeds from standard M1A magazines. The receiver is forged from 8620 steel, and the bolt is heat-treated for durability. The trigger is a two-stage match unit, factory set to a clean 4.5 to 5.0 pound pull. The stock is a synthetic McMillan M3A tactical stock with an adjustable cheek piece and a lengthened forend for bipod mounting.
