The Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT .22-250 Rem 20" 4R bolt-action rifle is built for hunters and range shooters who refuse to compromise between accuracy and carry-ability. By combining a carbon fiber wrapped 416R stainless barrel with an FFT carbon fiber stock, Christensen Arms has engineered a lightweight performer that sheds roughly a pound compared to conventional builds—without sacrificing the sub-MOA accuracy that defines the brand. Whether you're glassing ridges for varmints or dialing in long-range loads at the bench, this rifle rewards precision and punishes excuses.

The action is standard Rem 700 footprint, dressed in natural stainless steel and fitted with a Trigger Tech trigger that breaks clean and predictable. The FFT hinged floor plate and carbon fiber bolt knob reduce weight while keeping ergonomics familiar. A removable stainless side-baffle brake tames the recoil impulse of the .22-250—a cartridge known for its flat trajectory and velocity. The enlarged ejection port improves reliability and speed when working the bolt, whether you're cycling singles or pushing through a string of shots.

Christensen's spot-bedding approach, anchored by stainless steel pillars in the FFT carbon fiber stock, pairs mechanical precision with a sporter profile that won't punish your shoulder on a long hunt. The 4-round internal magazine keeps things simple and dependable. This rifle ships ready to mount glass and go to work—backed by Christensen Arms' Sub-MOA Guarantee, so you're not betting on promises.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Ridgeline FFT lighter than other .22-250 bolt-action rifles?

Christensen Arms uses carbon fiber extensively throughout the design: the barrel is wrapped in Aerograde carbon fiber, the stock is their FFT carbon fiber construction, and even the floor plate and bolt knob are carbon fiber. Combined with stainless steel components, this combination saves approximately a pound compared to all-steel builds, making it ideal for hunters who cover elevation and distance.

Is the Ridgeline FFT compatible with standard Rem 700 bases and rings?

Yes. The receiver uses a standard Rem 700 optics base (STD 6-48), so any quality scope rings and bases designed for the Rem 700 platform will mount directly without modification.

Can the side-baffle brake be removed?

Yes, the stainless steel side-baffle brake is removable, so you can take it off if you prefer shooting without one or need compliance for a specific range.

What's included with this rifle?

The rifle comes with the stainless side-baffle brake installed, FFT carbon fiber floor plate, FFT bolt knob, Trigger Tech trigger, and a recoil pad. You'll need to add optics and ammunition to get to the range.
