The Springfield Armory M1A Loaded Series is a testament to precision engineering and performance enhancement, offering enthusiasts an upgraded version of the venerable Standard M1A. This rifle is designed for those who seek superior accuracy without venturing into match-shop price territory.
At its core lies a 22-inch carbon steel National Match barrel, air-gauged and medium-weight, ensuring consistent shot placement with every pull of the trigger. The six-groove rifling with a right-hand twist rate of 1:11" further refines this accuracy by stabilizing projectiles effectively.
The black composite stock provides durability while maintaining a classic aesthetic appeal that complements the blue finish of the barrel. Weighing in at 9.3 pounds (with an empty magazine), this rifle balances well between portability and stability when firing.
Sight systems on this model are exemplary; it features a National Match .062" blade front sight paired with a match-grade aperture rear sight capable of precise adjustments—½ MOA for windage and 1 MOA for elevation—allowing shooters to fine-tune their aim under various conditions.
This firearm integrates several enhancements popular among competitive shooters in recent decades—all available now without breaking your budget thanks to Springfield Armory's commitment to quality craftsmanship at accessible prices.
The M1A Loaded Series represents more than just an upgrade; it embodies excellence in semi-automatic rifles—a reliable companion whether you're engaging targets competitively or honing skills on the range.
