Model 2020 Waypoint Special Edition
We worked with engineers from Springfield Armory to create Custom Shop loads specifically designed for the utmost performance from the new Model 2020 Waypoint rifle.
The 7mm Backcountry is an entirely new high-performance, all-range cartridge designed by Federal. Its exclusive Peak Alloy case technology allows higher pressures that drive velocities over 3,000 fps with 170-grain bullets through 20-inch barrels. Ammunition will never be the same.
Using its exclusive design, the 7mm Backcountry cartridge pushes 170-grain bullets 3,000 fps through 20-inch barrels, outpacing all cartridges in its class and producing flatter trajectories.
The exclusive Peak Alloy case can be loaded to higher pressures than brass, producing higher velocities and more energy than comparable cartridges.
Since it can produce magnum speeds from short barrels, 7mm Backcountry lets hunters run a suppressor while keeping their rifle compact and maneuverable.

Are Peak Alloy Cases Reloadable?
Peak Alloy cases behave differently than brass, handling pressures of 80,000 psi. But they are also reloadable, and that allows even more versatility from Peak Alloy cartridges.
Peak Alloy: Better For Suppressors
By generating more velocity, Peak Alloy case technology lets shooters run a shorter, more compact suppressed rifle without sacrificing ballistics.
