About This Firearm

The Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint is a carbon-fiber-stocked bolt-action 7mm Remington Magnum built for mountain hunting and long shots. It has an MSRP of $1,995. Springfield guarantees .75 MOA accuracy from this chambering, a quarter of an inch tighter than a sub-MOA guarantee, and it comes from a fluted 416 stainless barrel in a 1:8 twist.

A scope mounts on a Picatinny base cut to the Remington 700 long-action pattern, and no sights are fitted. One three-round AccuMag comes with the rifle, in a heavy-duty case, with a thread protector for when the radial brake comes off. The TriggerTech trigger leaves the factory at 3.5 lbs. The stock has M-Lok slots and QD cups moulded in, so a bipod and a sling attach without adapters, but the comb and the length of pull are fixed.

If you're cross-shopping, the Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT has an MSRP of $2,149.99 and saves 2.29 lbs, though it feeds from an internal magazine and guarantees a wider group. The Weatherby Model 307 Range XP 2.0 has an MSRP of $1,299, weighs 0.19 lbs less, holds five rounds and has a stock that adjusts, on an action that takes 700-pattern parts. The Springfield sits between them, with the tightest guarantee of the three and the least adjustment.

Best For

GOOD
Long Range/Precision
A 1:8 twist spins the long 7mm bullets that hold velocity at distance, the stock mounts a bipod directly, and the accuracy figure is in writing.
GOOD
Hunting (Deer/Elk)
At 123 oz with a brake fitted, the recoil is mild for a magnum, and the carbon stock does not move with the weather.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths
  • The trigger adjusts between 2.5 and 5 lbs, so the pull can be set for hunting or for the bench.
  • The bolt is fluted 4140 tool steel, nitrided, running on dual lugs in EDM-cut raceways with an extraction cam that breaks a stuck magnum case loose.
  • The barrel and brake are Cerakoted in the same Mil-Spec green, so the muzzle device does not stand out as a bolt-on part.
Limitations
  • At 46 inches overall it is longer than the 24-inch barrel suggests, because the brake adds to the end of it.
  • The magazine holds three, so a day of shooting is a lot of magazine filling.
  • Nothing about the fit adjusts, which is a gap at this price when the Weatherby Model 307 Range XP 2.0 adjusts cheek height and length of pull.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the .75 MOA guarantee cover?

A three-quarter-inch spread at 100 yards, which is a quarter of an inch tighter than a sub-MOA promise.

Can the brake be taken off?

Yes. The muzzle is threaded and a thread protector comes in the box, so the rifle can be shot bare or suppressed. Re-zero after changing what is on the muzzle.

What scope base does it need?

A Picatinny base for a Remington 700 long action, with 6-48 screws. That is the common pattern, so bases are easy to find.
