The Springfield Armory Waypoint 2020 .300 Win Mag 24″ CF is a precision long-action bolt rifle built for shooters who demand consistent, repeatable accuracy at extended ranges. Chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum, this model pairs a 24-inch carbon fiber-wrapped barrel with a premium Ridgeline-style stock, an adjustable TriggerTech trigger, and toolless bolt disassembly for field maintenance. The dual-locking-lug bolt runs on EDM raceways, and the rifle ships with a detachable 3-round magazine, a SA radial brake, and a factory Picatinny mount—all ready for optics and load development.
