GENESEO, ILL. (05/06/24) – Springfield Armory® is proud to announce the release of two new color options — Coyote with black webbing and OD Green with black webbing — for the popular Model 2020 Rimfire Target family of .22 LR bolt-action rifles. They offer shooters a refined bolt-action rifle with all the quality and performance you’ve come to expect from Springfield Armory. The MSRP for each of the new variants is $499.

The Model 2020 Rimfire bolt-action rifle is offered in two primary versions — the synthetic-stocked Target Model and the wood-stocked Classic Model. The Target features a reinforced polymer stock modeled after the popular Model 2020 Waypoint, while the Classic is offered in four grades of Turkish walnut with a satin finish. These two new colors for the Target variant complement the original Black and Sage with black webbing offerings.

Dual standard sling swivels on the Model 2020 Rimfire give shooters twin interface points for the sling of their choice. The rifles’ rubber recoil pads, artfully shaped and contoured with the lines of the rifle, shoulder intuitively and comfortably. In addition, a length of pull of 13.45” ensures the maximum in handling and performance.

The Model 2020 Rimfire action features dual cocking cams and a hard chrome bolt for smooth cycling and flawless operation. The 60-degree bolt throw enhances speed and ease of use while the interrupted Picatinny rail delivers a solid foundation for the optic of your choice. Each Model 2020 Rimfire ships with our .22-caliber rotary magazine that is cross-compatible with Ruger® 10/22®-pattern magazines of the same capacity.

The premium heavy-profile barrel of the Model 2020 Rimfire Target is 20” long and free-floated for its full length. As a result, the rifle will not suffer point of impact shift due to input against the stock. It is also threaded to accept suppressors and muzzle devices.

Optimized for the .22-caliber action, the Model 2020 Rimfire features a Model 700-pattern adjustable trigger that is factory-set at 4.5 lbs. The trigger can be tuned to your preference and delivers a crisp, clean break. Furthermore, the action is designed to accept many aftermarket 700-pattern triggers for enhanced customization.

“The Model 2020 Rimfire family features the appeal of a well-made rimfire rifle,” says Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory. “With these new color variants in the Rimfire line, shooters have even more options for a high-quality .22 LR bolt-action rifle.”
