Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT .270 Winchester Bolt-Action Rifle - Black

The Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT .270 Winchester bolt-action rifle combines lightweight carbon fiber construction with hard-hitting accuracy, making it a serious choice for mountain hunters and long-range shooters who refuse to compromise on either performance or portability. Built on a rigid stainless steel action and wrapped in a match-chambered, hand-lapped barrel, this rifle delivers the Sub-MOA accuracy Christensen Arms guarantees—whether you're glassing ridge lines at elevation or setting up for a distant shot.

Carbon fiber runs through the DNA of the Ridgeline FFT: the barrel is wrapped in Aerograde carbon fiber for stiffness without weight, the stock is purpose-built FFT carbon fiber with integrated bedding pillars, and even the floor plate and bolt knob follow suit. The result is a rifle that weighs significantly less than conventional builds without sacrificing rigidity or barrel harmonics. The stainless steel side-baffle brake (removable) tames recoil and helps you spot your own shots, while the natural stainless action sits cleanly against the black stock with gray webbing for a finished, professional look.

Ergonomics matter in the field: the enlarged ejection port clears rounds cleanly, the TriggerTech trigger breaks crisp and predictable, and the improved bolt release keeps the action snappy when you need speed. Internal 4-round magazine capacity (3 for magnum rounds) keeps weight down while maintaining practical field reloads. The sporter-style stock and recoil pad make it comfortable for all-day carry and shooting, and 6-48 Rem 700 optics bases let you mount your glass without fussing.

Left-handed shooters have a home here too—Christensen offers this rifle in southpaw configuration. Whether you're hunting elk in the high country, taking a long-range precision shot, or simply demand a rifle that performs without punishing your pack, the Ridgeline FFT delivers accuracy, speed, and dependability in a package that won't wear you down.
