Overview

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is purpose-built for the competitive marksman and precision rifle enthusiast. It retains the iconic operating system of the M1A while incorporating a heavy, match-grade barrel that reduces harmonic vibration and heat-induced shift. The rifle ships with a McMillan fiberglass stock, bedded for consistent bedding pressure, and features a two-stage military-style trigger that breaks cleanly at approximately 4.5 to 5.0 pounds. This model is chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester) and accepts standard M1A magazines.

Who It’s For

The Springfield M1A M21 Long Range Match 308 with Douglas Barrel is designed for the competitive service rifle shooter, the precision long-range marksman, and the collector who values the M14 lineage. It is ideal for NRA High Power and CMP Service Rifle matches where the M1A platform is permitted, as well as for tactical precision classes and steel target shooting out to 800 yards and beyond. The rifle also suits the experienced hunter who requires a robust, semi-automatic platform capable of ethical shot placement on game at moderate distances. This is not a entry-level rifle; it is intended for shooters who understand barrel break-in procedures, handloading for accuracy, and the maintenance demands of a tuned match firearm.
