Christensen Arms Mesa first impressions and initial review

[wannakillabigbull]

Thanks for the great review. I'm sold and saving up for one in 300 WSM.....unless I find a used LH Hoyt carbon spyder Turbo ZT. This seems like one heck of a deal for what your getting and has everything I could want in a mountain rifle. Even if it is over weight, it is still nearly half the weight of what I've been using.

Dameon I'm doing the same. I emailed them a couple times about making the Mesa in 300 WSM and they said maybe next year. Let's hope they actually do. From what I've heard they're selling pretty quick so I imagine they will broaden the cartridges offered by 2018

They must be selling. I can't find one within 2 hours drive to look over before I buy.

The local Cabela's told me 6-8 weeks, and quoted me $100 over MSRP. I said thanks but no thanks.

I saw one and snapped, picked one up in 300WM for a longer range gun.

Fit and finish is awesome, lots of features for the price tag.

Thanks for ruining the odds for the rest of us!!

Side note: I ordered my Mesa in 7RM today!! 6-8 week wait. Uh

I'm already in but I have no hopes of winning. I want a 300wsm. Sent them a note and let them know, I'm not sure it will matter.

They will take notice. There are three potential 300 WSM Mesa buyers in this thread alone. I'm hoping for next year....especially since I just blew my fun money on a Hoyt Carbon Defiant Turbo.

If I wanted a 300WSM I would buy a Tikka and a Stockys carbon stock but I would much rather have a 300WM in which case I would take a Mesa in this price range.

Christensen posted on social media asking what chamberings people would like to see in the Mesa. I again emailed them asking for a 300 WSM and gave them my reasons for it. I'd say odds of them listening are slim but now would be the time to try.

I sure would like to have one in a 35 whelen
