Christensen Rifles what are your guy's thoughts?

[mainbeam pursuit2]

I’ve heard a lot of the complaints, have three ridgelines. All three have been reliable, great shooting rifles.

I have 2 CA FFT Ti rifles. a 308 Winchester and a 7PRC. The 308 is a consistent 1/2" shooter or less with several different factory loads and the 7PRC is consistent 3/4" shooter with Hornady ammo but I'm ready to try the Federal Premium ammo tomorrow. It's supposed to be much better. I would buy 2 more every day of the week. I would put that 308 up against anyone's Tikka....or any other builders lightweight hunting rifle. The rifle weighs right at 5lbs with the titanium brake. BTW...those groups are with one of those garbage Leupolds. LOL. Tikka's are a $500 rifle selling for double.

I really wanted to get a CA at one point, but I couldn't get over the mixed reviews I kept hearing of bad rifles that didn't shoot. I don't have the time to risk in dealing with and getting rid of a problem.

Yeah The reviews are definitely mixed, some forums absolutely hate them and others seem to say they're decent.

I ran a poll a while back of whether they group and found that 30% of owner say they don’t group.

I’m curious. Did your Christensen Arms group out of the box?

I’ve seen some bad publicity about them being over priced junk but i kind of wanted to see the numbers.

You pulled the rifle out of the box, slapped a scope on and torqued everything down. Did/does it group?

I’ve had a handful of their rifles. All have shot very well

I have two Ridgelines in 6.5 CM. One is the Ti version. Both are 1/2” or better with Hornady Precision Hunter 143 ELD-X. I don’t bother to hand load for them.
