Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT 7mm PRC 22″ Carbon-Wrapped

Description

The Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT 7mm PRC 22” Carbon-Wrapped is a production-ready precision rifle that shaves weight without sacrificing the accuracy you demand on the clock or on the mountain. Built around a full carbon-fiber stock and an aerograde stainless barrel wrapped in carbon, this rig delivers sub-MOA consistency out of the box. Chambered in the hot 7mm PRC, it gives you flat trajectories and retained energy at distance, all wrapped in a Burnt Bronze Cerakote finish that shrugs off weather. If you want a lightweight bolt gun that prints groups and runs fast, this is it.

Key Features

• Carbon-Wrapped 22” Barrel: The aerograde stainless steel barrel is wrapped in carbon fiber to shed heat and weight while maintaining stiffness. Why it matters: Less barrel whip means tighter groups on long strings, and the 22” length keeps the rifle balanced for offhand shots.
• TriggerTech Trigger: Factory-installed TriggerTech trigger breaks clean and crisp with zero take-up or creep. Why it matters: A predictable, sub-2-pound pull lets you break shots without disturbing your sight picture, critical for accuracy.
• FFT Carbon Fiber Stock: The FFT (Fast Firing Technology) stock is a full carbon-fiber sporter with green and tan accents and an ergonomic palm swell. Why it matters: It’s rigid, lightweight, and gives you a solid cheek weld for consistent head position.
• Removable Side-Baffle Brake: The threaded muzzle comes with a stainless steel side-baffle brake that reduces felt recoil by up to 40%. Why it matters: Less recoil means faster follow-up shots and less fatigue during practice or competition.
• Burnt Bronze Cerakote Finish: The receiver and metal parts are treated with Burnt Bronze Cerakote. Why it matters: It resists corrosion, scratches, and glare, keeping the rifle functional and low-profile in any environment.

Who It’s For

This rifle is built for the competition shooter who wants a lightweight platform for PRS, NRL Hunter, or long-range matches, and for the precision enthusiast who demands sub-MOA performance without a heavy chassis. It also suits backcountry hunters who need to carry a rifle all day and still trust it at 800 yards.

Pros & Cons

• Pros: Sub-MOA guarantee, lightweight (6.5 lbs), excellent TriggerTech trigger, durable Cerakote finish, effective muzzle brake, threaded barrel for suppressors.
• Cons: The 22” barrel gives up some velocity compared to a 24” or 26” option, and the carbon-fiber stock may require a bedding job for absolute best accuracy with heavy loads.
