The Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT .243 Winchester bolt-action rifle brings weight savings and precision to open-country hunting without compromise. Built on a modern platform that leverages advanced carbon fiber construction, this rifle delivers the speed and shootability hunters demand in a package that doesn't wear you down over long days in the field. The .243 Winchester chambering is a proven cartridge for medium game and target work, and the Ridgeline FFT's engineering ensures consistent accuracy with Christensen Arms' Sub-MOA Guarantee backing every rifle that leaves their shop.
What makes the Ridgeline FFT stand out is its thoughtful blend of weight reduction and functional upgrades. The barrel is a 416R stainless steel construction wrapped in aerograde carbon fiber, hand-lapped and button-rifled to tight tolerances, with a removable stainless steel side-baffle brake that manages recoil while keeping the profile sleek. The action features a natural stainless finish and accepts standard Remington 700 optics bases, making it compatible with the widest range of hunting scopes and rings. An enlarged ejection port, improved bolt release, and Trigger Tech trigger round out the controls, while the FFT carbon fiber floor plate and bolt knob—signature touches of the new generation—shave weight without sacrificing strength.
The Ridgeline FFT stock is Christensen Arms' proprietary FFT carbon fiber design in black with gray webbing, engineered with stainless steel bedding pillars and spot-bedded for consistent lockup. Internal magazine capacity is four rounds in standard calibers, and the rifle comes with a recoil pad for shooter comfort. The black stock paired with the natural stainless action creates a clean, professional look that works equally well on the bench or in brush. Left-handed options are available for shooters who need them.
