After reading so much negativity about the Christensen rifles I was a bit hesitant to purchase one.

The lefty Mesa 7mm-08 came on sale for under a $1000 and I pulled the trigger.

Found a Vx-II 6-18 AO here on RS and felt it would work well.

Weather is garbage here today but I was chomping at the bit to send some rounds down range.

Did the 50 Rd break in per CA.

Managed a “good enough” group to make this rifle a keeper.

6 shots @100 w Barnes 120gr TTSX bt
3 w can 3 w/o

I have a VX-2 and it holds zero. I don't drop my guns but it has been on 3006 since 2019 and still shoots right where she's supposed to.

I love my Mesa and Mesa Long Range and 3 Ridgelines and my ELR.They all shoot great with my hand loads. Actually one of the ridgelines in 6.5 creedmore is the only rifle I don’t
load for. It’s shoots Hornady precision hunter into itty bitty groups
