Christensen Arms Mesa FFT 6.5 PRC Bolt-Action Rifle - Green Finish (Model 8010107500)

The Christensen Arms Mesa FFT 6.5 PRC bolt-action rifle is built for hunters who won't compromise between power and portability. This ultralight hunting rifle starts at just 5.5 pounds, making it a genuine partner for steep backcountry hunts where every ounce matters. The 6.5 PRC cartridge delivers serious range performance in a package light enough to pack miles uphill—a rare combination that separates the Mesa FFT from heavier, traditional hunting rifles.

The Mesa FFT's backbone is a match-chambered, 416R stainless steel barrel with a featherweight contour, hand-lapped and button-rifled for accuracy. The barrel floats free for consistency and wears a removable radial muzzle brake with either tungsten or burnt bronze Cerakote finish to manage recoil. The threaded muzzle accepts either 1/2–28 or 5/8×24 muzzle devices, giving you flexibility for suppressors or other brakes. Christensen Arms backs the rifle with their Sub-MOA Guarantee—a factory promise of sub-minute-of-angle accuracy.

The action is a Rem 700 pattern with modern refinements: a skeletonized bolt handle reduces rotating mass, an enlarged ejection port clears cases reliably, and TriggerTech delivers a clean, predictable trigger pull. Billet aluminum bottom metal with a hinged floor plate and improved bolt release round out a shooter-focused design. The signature Christensen Arms FFT carbon-fiber sporter-style stock locks everything in place with stainless steel bedding pillars and spot bedding contact. This green stock with black and tan accents looks the part on a backcountry rifle.

Internal magazine capacity is 4 rounds (3 for magnum calibers), and the receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Rem 700 optics bases—ready for your preferred riflescope setup. Whether you're glassing steep country or closing the distance on a once-in-a-lifetime animal, the Mesa FFT puts a lightweight, accurate 6.5 PRC in your hands without the fatigue of a conventional hunting rifle.
