Springfield Armory has announced the addition of three new Model 2020 Waypoint rifles, featuring an SG-100 Cerakote finish on their stocks. Precision manufactured in the United States, the rifles are built to deliver custom-grade accuracy and performance, and the announcement came September 1, 2026, from Geneseo, Illinois.

Available in both short- and long-action variants in .308 Win., 7mm PRC, or .300 Win. Mag., the three new Waypoint variants take on a distinctive configuration with the SG-100 Cerakote finish applied to a bead-blasted carbon fiber stock from AG Composites. The nonslip, ceramic coating — dubbed "Super-Grip" by Cerakote — provides a tactile, rubberized texture for enhanced grip. The fluted 416 stainless steel barrel, topped with an SA Radial Brake on the threaded muzzle, and the stainless steel action both carry a black H-164 Cerakote finish, with an integral recoil lug, EDM-cut raceways, and a fluted bolt that disassembles without tools.

Springfield backs each rifle with a rock-solid .75 MOA accuracy guarantee for three shots with match-grade ammunition and a skilled shooter. The .308 Win. rifle features a 20-inch barrel, while the 7mm PRC and .300 Win. Mag. versions sport 24-inch barrels. MSRP for each of the new SG-100-coated variants is $1,995.

Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory, framed the launch: "The Model 2020's combination of custom-grade features at production rifle pricing has established it as a premier bolt-action hunting rifle. Building on this tradition are these newest variants, featuring a subdued black finish on the metal paired with the enhanced grip of the SG-100 coating on the stock."
