$1,599.99
The Christensen Arms Mesa Long Range in 6.5 Creedmoor is purpose-built for shooters who demand accuracy at distance without compromise. This is a serious long-range hunting rifle from a manufacturer known for precision engineering, with the specs to back up its name. The 16.25" barrel is threaded and finished in burnt bronze Cerakote—a hard-anodized ceramic coating that resists corrosion and stands up to field conditions. The steel receiver is drilled and tapped, ready for your optic mount of choice, and the adjustable cheek riser stock keeps your sight picture consistent from various shooting positions.
What sets this rifle apart is its commitment to practicality for the hunter or long-range shooter who wants to move through the field without unnecessary weight or length. The 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge has earned its reputation for delivering high ballistic coefficient bullets with minimal recoil, making it an excellent choice for extended-range precision work. The four-plus-one magazine capacity gives you a ready reserve without excessive bulk.
The polymer stock with green base and black/tan webbing isn't just aesthetics—it's designed for durability and ease of handling in the field. An adjustable cheek riser is essential for long-range work, letting you dial in perfect cheek-to-stock contact whether you're shooting from a pack, barricade, or bench. This is the kind of detail that separates a rifle built for compromise from one engineered for the task at hand.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this rifle ready to mount an optic?
Yes. The steel receiver is drilled and tapped, so you can mount a standard Picatinny rail or direct-mount optic system. The scope base and rings are not included, so you'll need to select those separately based on your preferred optic.
What's the purpose of the adjustable cheek riser?
The adjustable cheek riser lets you raise or lower your cheek contact point on the stock to achieve proper sight alignment with your scope at various magnifications and shooting positions. This is especially important for long-range shooting, where consistency matters.
Why is the barrel threaded?
A threaded muzzle accepts suppressors, muzzle brakes, or flash hiders. If you're not using one of those accessories, a simple thread protector cap keeps the threads clean and protected.
Is the 6.5 Creedmoor suitable for hunting?
Yes. The 6.5 Creedmoor is a modern cartridge widely used for medium- to large-game hunting at extended range. It delivers excellent ballistics with moderate recoil, making it popular for both hunters and long-range precision shooters.
