Christensen Arms Ridgeline Fft Sagebrush 7Mm Bc 16.25

The Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT in 7mm is a lightweight precision rifle purpose-built for hunters who refuse to compromise accuracy for pack weight. With a 16.25-inch barrel wrapped in carbon fiber and topped by a stainless steel side-baffle brake, this compact hunter delivers serious performance in a package that doesn't punish you on the mountain. The FFT stands for Freeflight Technology—Christensen Arms' philosophy that a rifle should be as efficient as a hunting partner: tough, accurate, and light enough to carry all day.

At the core is a Christensen Arms precision-machined receiver paired with a TriggerTech trigger, giving you a clean, reliable action tuned for consistency. The 416R stainless steel barrel is button rifled, match-chambered, hand-lapped, and free-floating—the kind of accuracy-first engineering you expect from a custom gunsmith, not a production rifle. The spiral-fluted bolt and enlarged bolt knob make cycling smooth even with cold hands or gloved fingers, while the enlarged ejection port keeps things running fast and clean.

Handling is intuitive: the rifle ships with an internal magazine and hinged aluminum floor plate, but you can convert it to AICS detachable magazines with an aftermarket kit if you want faster reloads in the field. The FFT carbon fiber stock features Christensen's signature carbon fiber bedding pillars and spot bedding for rock-solid consistency shot to shot. The stock design is sporter profile—sleek and practical without unnecessary bulk. A quality recoil pad manages the 7mm's kick, and the muzzle brake is removable if you prefer running suppressor-ready or shooting without one.

Optics mounting is straightforward: the rifle is drilled and tapped for standard Remington 700 scope bases, so you can slap on your favorite glass and head out. Whether you're hunting high country mule deer, elk, or precision-shooting at distance, the Ridgeline FFT delivers the accuracy hunters demand in a rig light enough to actually enjoy carrying.
