In peacetime, when we talk of rifle shooting and rifle training and rifle competition, the general public thinks it's just the hobby of a few—a small-time sport. Even in wartime, it takes time and battle experience to get down to the fundamentals. But now, just as in World War I, we're learning that riflemen count, and that too much emphasis cannot be placed on their training. For battle riflemen aren't made in a day, nor even in a few weeks on the range. Read More

Once known as the dominant maker of M1A rifles used in high power rifle competition at Camp Perry, Springfield Armory is now known for a much broader line, including M1911s, striker-fired polymer-frame pistols, a bullpup 5.56 NATO rifle and even a High Power pistol made at its Geneseo, Ill. factory.

In 2016, the rules for NRA Service Rifle competition changed to represent the military rifle of the day more accurately. The new provision allowed competitors to use a scope with a magnification of no greater than 4.5X and a maximum objective lens diameter of 34 mm. When the rule was adopted, this left very few suitable options on the table, barely any of which had the necessary parallax adjustment to clearly make out targets at the various distances that these matches can entail.
