About this product
The Springfield Armory 2020 Redline .308 Win 20" Threaded Olive/Black is a lightweight bolt-action rifle designed for precision shooting with a carbon-fiber barrel and suppressor compatibility. It combines .30-caliber power in a compact package, suited for hunters and tactical users who value portability and accuracy without excessive weight. Its features cater to those needing reliable performance in field conditions.
What is the Springfield Armory 2020 Redline used for?
This rifle is primarily used for hunting medium to large game and precision tactical applications due to its compact design and .308 caliber. I find it excels in situations requiring mobility and stealth, such as backcountry hunts or confined spaces, where a shorter barrel and lighter weight are advantageous without sacrificing stopping power.
How does the Springfield Armory 2020 Redline compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle in .308 Win?
The Springfield 2020 Redline is better for lightweight precision, weighing 6.8 lb compared to the Stevens 334's 7.5 lb, making it easier to carry over long distances. However, the Stevens 334 is more budget-friendly at around $500 less, but lacks the carbon-fiber barrel and advanced trigger system, so choose based on weight savings versus cost. For details, see the Stevens 334 Rifle.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The rifle weighs 6.8 lb and has an overall length of 39.5 inches, with a 20-inch barrel length. This makes it noticeably lighter and shorter than many .308 bolt-actions, contributing to easier handling and transport in rugged terrain or during extended stalks.
Who is this NOT for?
This rifle is not for beginners or those on a tight budget, as its $1,615.99 price and specialized features like the adjustable TriggerTech trigger require experience to maximize. It's also unsuitable for long-range benchrest shooting where heavier barrels offer better stability; for that, consider a dedicated precision rifle with more mass.
What's in the box?
Included are the rifle itself, one 3-round AICS short-action detachable magazine, a removable radial brake, and a Picatinny optic mount for Remington 700 SA pattern. This covers essentials for immediate use, but you'll need to add optics, ammunition, and possibly additional magazines for extended sessions, as only one is provided.
Is the Springfield Armory 2020 Redline worth it at $1,615.99?
Yes, if you prioritize lightweight construction and suppressor readiness in a .308 platform, as it offers premium features like the carbon-fiber barrel and Grayboe stock that justify the cost for serious shooters. However, for general-purpose use, cheaper alternatives like the the Stevens 334 might suffice, saving you over $600.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with standard .308 Winchester ammunition?
- Yes, it chambers and fires standard .308 Win and 7.62 NATO rounds reliably, but always check local regulations and use quality brass-cased ammo for best performance, especially with the 1:10 twist rate barrel.
- Does it fit in a standard rifle case?
- Yes, with an overall length of 39.5 inches, it fits most standard 40-inch rifle cases, but ensure the case has adequate padding to protect the carbon-fiber barrel and olive/black stock finish during transport.
- How long does shipping take?
- Shipping typically takes 3-5 business days for in-stock items, but delays can occur due to regulatory checks; confirm with the retailer for exact timing, as firearms often require additional processing.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit my needs?
