Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 6.5 PRC compare to other 6.5mm cartridges for hunting?
The 6.5 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) is a high-performance cartridge designed to push heavy 6.5mm bullets at significantly higher velocities than the popular 6.5 Creedmoor. This translates to a flatter trajectory, more retained energy at distance, and superior performance on larger game at ranges beyond 500 yards. It's an excellent choice for hunters targeting elk, mule deer, and similar-sized animals in open terrain where longer shots are common.
What does the .75 MOA accuracy guarantee actually mean?
Springfield Armory's .75 MOA guarantee means that each Waypoint rifle is tested and certified to produce groups of three shots within three-quarters of an inch at 100 yards using quality match-grade ammunition. This level of precision is typically associated with custom-built rifles costing significantly more. The guarantee reflects the tight manufacturing tolerances, hand-fitted action, and match-grade barrel that go into every Model 2020 Waypoint.
Can I use the Springfield Waypoint with a suppressor?
Yes. The Springfield Model 2020 Waypoint's 24" barrel is threaded and ships with the SA Radial Muzzle Brake installed. The muzzle brake is removable, allowing you to attach a suppressor or other compatible muzzle device of your choice. Be sure to verify thread pitch compatibility with your suppressor manufacturer before purchase, and ensure any suppressor acquisition complies with federal NFA regulations and applicable state laws.
