Overview
The Springfield Armory Waypoint 300 PRC Bolt Action Rifle is engineered for long-range precision engagements, integrating advanced materials and design for consistent performance. This specific configuration, featuring a carbon fiber barrel and a fixed Ridge stock, prioritizes weight reduction, rigidity, and shot-to-shot consistency, making it a robust platform for demanding applications.
Key Features
Precision Carbon Fiber Barrel
Utilizes a carbon fiber-wrapped Sendero profile barrel, minimizing overall weight while maintaining exceptional stiffness and thermal stability. This construction mitigates barrel whip and heat-induced point-of-impact shifts during extended firing sequences, enhancing shot grouping and long-term accuracy. The barrel is threaded 5/8×24 for effective integration of muzzle devices.
Waypoint Precision Action
Built upon a precisely machined stainless steel action, designed for concentricity and smooth cycling. The fluted bolt body reduces friction and provides positive extraction and ejection. An integrated recoil lug ensures consistent bedding and efficient recoil energy dissipation, critical for repeatable accuracy.
Carbon Fiber Ridge Stock
Features a purpose-built fixed carbon fiber stock in the Ridge profile. This design maximizes structural rigidity and minimizes flex, providing a highly stable shooting platform. The lightweight material contributes significantly to the rifle’s reduced overall mass, optimizing handling without compromising durability. Textured grip surfaces ensure secure manipulation in varied conditions.
Adjustable Trigger System
Incorporates an adjustable, single-stage trigger, factory-set to a crisp break, typically between 2.5 and 4.5 lbs. This allows for precise shot initiation, which is critical for maintaining accuracy at extended ranges and mitigating shooter-induced error.
Detachable Magazine System
Accepts AICS-pattern detachable box magazines, facilitating rapid reloads. The Waypoint 300 PRC is typically supplied with one 3-round magazine, optimizing for extended range prone shooting or hunting scenarios where capacity is not the primary driver.
Performance Guarantee
Backed by the manufacturer’s 0.75 Minute-of-Angle (MOA) guarantee with match-grade ammunition and a skilled shooter, affirming its inherent precision and build quality.
