Christensen Arms Mesa Long Range 6.5 PRC Bolt-Action Rifle - Black

The Christensen Arms Mesa Long Range in 6.5 PRC is a bolt-action rifle engineered from the ground up for shooters who demand precision at extended distances. Built on a proven Remington 700-pattern action, this rifle combines a stainless steel medium palma contour barrel with an adjustable carbon fiber composite stock—a platform that balances weight, rigidity, and real-world shootability. At just 8.9 pounds, it's nimble enough to carry into backcountry elk country yet stable enough for controlled, consistent long-range shooting. Whether you're dialing in at a precision rifle range or hunting from a distance, the Mesa Long Range delivers the accuracy and reliability serious distance shooters expect.

The barrel is where precision begins: 416R stainless steel, hand-lapped and button-rifled with a match chamber, crowned with a seamless removable side-baffle muzzle brake and free-floated for consistent accuracy. The action features a skeletonized bolt handle, enlarged ejection port, and TriggerTech trigger—all the refinements that make shooting smoother and reloading faster. The billet aluminum bottom metal includes a hinged floor plate and holds four rounds (three for magnum cases), and the twin-lug spiral fluted bolt is nitride treated for durability. A tungsten Cerakote finish on the action and black composite stock with gray webbing round out the build.

Christensen Arms backs every Mesa Long Range with its Sub-MOA Guarantee, so you know the rifle is built to shoot. The adjustable comb and length-of-pull spacers let you dial in your fit, and the stainless steel pillars and spot bedding ensure the stock won't shift. The threaded muzzle (5/8-24) accepts suppressors and aftermarket brakes, and the standard Remington 700 optics base means any quality scope mounting system will work. If precision rifle shooting or long-range hunting is your discipline, the Mesa Long Range is built for that job.
