This Is The New Springfield Armory Model 2020 Redline

When Springfield Armory announced their Model 2020 Waypoint rifle a few years ago, it was quickly embraced by hunters who valued its accuracy and performance. The fact that it offered custom-like quality at much lower price didn’t hurt its popularity either. Not long after I got my hands on a Waypoint in 6 Creedmoor, it became my favorite rifle in the field, responsible for one of my best mule deer to date. It has held that position over the last three years. Now, Springfield has introduced a new version – the Model 2020 Redline – that will challenge the Waypoint for its position as the hunting rifle I reach for first.

The Springfield Armory Model 2020 Redline features the same feature-driven performance as the Waypoint in a lighter, carbon version that backcountry hunters will celebrate. The scout-style rifle, with two carbon-fiber jacketed barrel options (16 or 20 inches) and slimmed down Grayboe Trekker stock, doesn’t compromise on Springfield’s .75 MOA accuracy guarantee and should offer hunters another winning rifle for hardcore hunts where every ounce matters. Threaded for a suppressor, the Model 2020 Redline even comes with a special offer in partnership with Silencer Central covering the purchaser’s $200 federal “Tax Stamp” when they buy a Silencer Central Banish 30 suppressor.

From Springfield’s official release:

The Model 2020 Redline is a lightweight and easy to maneuver bolt-action rifle, which embraces attributes of the classic scout rifle. Springfield Armory’s new Model 2020 Redline takes the concept into the 21st century with the use of modern materials and cutting-edge design. The result is a lightweight and compact rifle ready for hunts where every ounce counts.

Designed to deliver a lightweight, custom-grade hunting rifle, the Model 2020 Redline is available chambered in .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor. Offered with a choice of 16” or 20” carbon fiber-jacketed barrels, the threaded muzzle as well as the compact dimensions of the rifle — with an overall length as short as 36.5” — make the Redline an ideal host for a suppressor on your next backcountry hunt.

Further enhancing the capabilities and light weight of the Redline is the use of a unique skeletonized Grayboe Trekker stock, combining light weight with unyielding performance. With an overall weight of just 28 ounces, the stock features an adjustable length of pull system — featuring .25” adjustment increments, with a range of 13.25” to 14.25” and adjustable up to 16” with additional spacers — for customizing it for a perfect fit. In addition, the stock features three sling studs — one in the rear and two in the front — as well as lightening cuts in both the forend and the radically relieved buttstock.

Also of note is the fact the stock features an integral bubble level/thumb rest located at the rear of the action. Rather than being positioned atop the scope, the location of the bubble level in the stock ensures you wring out maximum downrange performance from the rifle without having to break your cheekweld or lose your sight line through your optic.

The heart of the Redline is the Model 2020 action, precision manufactured from premium materials. It features dual locking lugs on a fluted bolt that runs smoothly down EDM raceways for perfect, repeatable engagement. In addition, an optimized extraction cam provides robust, reliable operation in any condition.

The free-floated BSF barrel of the Model 2020 Redline is jacketed in a roll-wrapped carbon fiber sleeve and loaded under tension. This means 95 percent of the carbon fiber sleeve doesn’t contact the barrel. In addition, fluting under the sleeve reduces weight and increases surface cooling area. Topping off the threaded muzzle is an SA Radial Brake to help minimize muzzle rise and ensure fast follow-up shots. A thread protector is also included.

The Redline features a TriggerTech trigger with a low-profile, non-snag safety. Employing the company’s Frictionless Release Technology, it’s adjustable from 2.5 – 5 lbs. with a patented, free-floating roller. And the high-quality trigger helps coax the best possible accuracy out of the rifle, which Springfield Armory guarantees with a rock-solid .75 MOA accuracy guarantee — for a three-shot group at 100 yards with quality match-grade factory ammunition, in the hands of a skilled shooter.

In addition, a partnership program with Silencer Central® offers all purchasers of Model 2020 Redline rifles — where legally applicable — a free $200 “Tax Stamp” for acquiring a Banish 30 suppressor through that company. The svelte lines and quick handling characteristics of the Redline make the Banish Backcountry .30-caliber titanium suppressor in particular a great partner for the rifle.

“The Model 2020 Waypoint set the standard for precision manufacturing, performance and accuracy from a premium, American-made rifle,” said Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Amory. “The new Model 2020 Redline continues that tradition by offering backcountry hunters a rifle perfectly suited to their demanding needs.”

Precision manufactured for performance and reliability, the Model 2020 Redline is perfectly suited for backcountry hunts where days are measured in miles. MSRP of all variants of the Redline is $2,299.
