The Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT in 7mm Backcountry is a purpose-built lightweight rifle designed for hunters who cover serious terrain and demand genuine performance without the weight penalty. Built on Christensen's precision-machined receiver and topped with a 16.25" carbon-fiber-wrapped 416R stainless steel barrel, this rifle delivers the accuracy and handling characteristics serious backcountry hunters expect—without leaving you gassed after the climb. The FFT designation refers to Christensen's carbon fiber stock technology, engineered to reduce overall weight while maintaining the stiffness necessary for consistent accuracy in the field.
The Ridgeline FFT comes equipped with a removable stainless steel side baffle brake threaded at 5/8x24 (standard spec), so you can configure it for your suppressor setup or run it open. The action features a spiral-fluted bolt with an enlarged knob for positive operation even in gloves, an improved bolt release, and an enlarged ejection port—functional details that matter when you're counting on your rifle in variable conditions. The carbon fiber bedding pillars and spot bedding ensure the barrel stays free-floating, and the button-rifled, match-chambered bore is hand-lapped for precision. Internally, a 4-round capacity magazine uses an aluminum hinged floor plate, and the rifle is also compatible with AICS detachable magazines via an aftermarket conversion kit if you want to expand your feeding options.
The FFT carbon fiber stock with gray accents looks the part and carries its weight low in the gun. The TriggerTech trigger is factory-installed, offering the crisp, predictable break serious shooters appreciate. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard Remington 700 optics bases, so mounting your glass is straightforward. At 16.25" barrel length, this is genuinely a backcountry rifle—short enough to maneuver in thick country, long enough to deliver 7mm ballistics where it matters.

Yes. The barrel is threaded at 5/8x24 (standard pitch), and the removable side baffle brake can be swapped for a suppressor or other muzzle device at that same thread pitch. Some suppressors may require a different brake configuration depending on the suppressor manufacturer, so verify compatibility with your specific can.
The rifle ships with an internal magazine featuring an aluminum hinged floor plate. It is compatible with AICS detachable magazines, but that conversion requires an aftermarket conversion kit (not included) to be installed.
FFT stands for Christensen's carbon fiber stock technology. The stock is manufactured from carbon fiber and incorporates carbon fiber bedding pillars for stiffness and accuracy. Combined with spot bedding, this design keeps the free-floating barrel consistently positioned for precision while keeping the overall rifle weight minimal—ideal for backcountry applications where every ounce matters.
