Key Features
- 22 Creedmoor Chambering: Why it matters — this cartridge delivers flat trajectories and high BC bullets, giving you a significant edge in PRS and long-range matches where wind drift and drop matter most.
- 20-inch Barrel: Why it matters — a shorter barrel keeps the rifle balanced for positional shooting and barricade work, while still achieving 2,900+ fps with 80-90 grain bullets, as verified by Chris’s factory test data.
- Bravo/Gray/Tan Stock: Why it matters — the multi-color laminate stock provides a stable, weather-resistant platform with adjustable cheek riser and LOP, ensuring repeatable cheek weld under match stress.
- Factory Fast Twist (FFT): Why it matters — the 1:7 twist rate stabilizes the heaviest 22 Creedmoor bullets (up to 95 grains), so you can run high-BC projectiles without keyholing, even at extended ranges.
- Timney Trigger (Included): Why it matters — a crisp, adjustable 2.5-4 lb trigger eliminates creep and overtravel, allowing you to break shots cleanly without disturbing your sight picture.
Who It’s For
This rifle targets PRS shooters, NRL Hunter competitors, and precision enthusiasts who want a turnkey rifle that can hang with custom builds. If you’re tired of bedding actions and chasing accuracy, the Ridgeline FFT delivers match-ready performance without the gunsmith bill.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Sub-MOA guarantee from Chris — every rifle is test-fired and comes with a target group.
- Pro: Threaded muzzle (5/8×24) for brakes or suppressors, standard for competition.
- Con: The 20-inch barrel means slightly lower velocity than a 22-24 inch tube — you’ll lose about 100 fps compared to a 24-inch, which can matter at 1,000+ yards in heavy wind.

The Chris Ridgeline undercuts both Zev and Geissele by nearly $1,000, while offering a lighter platform and the ballistic advantage of 22 Creedmoor. The trade-off is a less modular stock, but for pure accuracy per dollar, this wins.

Why This Rifle Dominates the 22 Creedmoor Market
According to NRA data, 22 Creedmoor rifle sales grew 34% in 2025, driven by PRS shooters seeking flatter trajectories than 6mm Creedmoor. The Chris Ridgeline FFT captures this trend with a factory-ready package that matches custom builds. One specific measurement that matters: the 1:7 twist rate stabilizes the Berger 95-grain VLD at 2,800 fps, giving you a G1 BC of 0.551 — that’s wind drift less than 0.5 MOA at 600 yards in a 10 mph crosswind.
