The Springfield Armory ST Victor 5.56 NATO rifle delivers precision engineering for serious shooters who demand reliability in any environment. This semi-automatic platform combines proven AR-15 architecture with Springfield's manufacturing expertise to create a versatile rifle suitable for competition, tactical training, and sporting applications.
What Makes This Different
The ST Victor features a 16-inch chrome moly vanadium barrel with a 1:8 twist rate, optimized for both 55-grain and 77-grain ammunition. Unlike basic AR platforms, this rifle includes a mid-length gas system that reduces felt recoil and improves reliability. The Bravo Company Manufacturing furniture and BCM Gunfighter charging handle provide enhanced ergonomics and durability compared to standard mil-spec components.
Key Features
- 16-inch chrome moly vanadium barrel with 1:8 twist rate for versatile ammunition compatibility
- Mid-length gas system reduces bolt velocity and improves cycling reliability
- BCM Gunfighter Mod 3 charging handle for positive manipulation under stress
- Bravo Company Manufacturing BCMGUNFIGHTER stock and pistol grip
- Saint low profile adjustable gas block for fine-tuning gas pressure

Range testing consistently produces sub-2 MOA groups with quality ammunition, making this rifle suitable for precision work out to 500 yards. The mid-length gas system cycles reliably with both brass and steel-cased ammunition, while the enhanced bolt carrier group maintains function in adverse conditions. Law enforcement agencies and competitive shooters appreciate the consistent lockup and smooth cycling during rapid-fire strings.
