Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

There is something about a walnut stock on a serious hunting rifle that carbon fiber and Cerakote just can't replicate. The Ridgeline Safari from Christensen Arms leans into that tradition, but underneath the wood it is every bit a modern precision rifle. You get a 416R stainless match grade barrel wrapped in aerospace grade carbon fiber, button rifled, hand lapped, free floated, and backed by Christensen's sub-MOA guarantee. This one is chambered in 7mm Backcountry, Federal's high-pressure cartridge built specifically to deliver magnum velocities out of shorter barrels, which makes the 20 inch tube here a smart pairing rather than a compromise. Thread on a suppressor using the 5/8×24 muzzle and you have a compact, quiet, flat-shooting rig that still hits like a much longer rifle.
The European walnut stock is shaped to handle recoil and stay steady on target, with an aluminum bedding block and pillar bedding keeping the action locked in for repeatable accuracy. Flush cup QD mounts front and rear make sling swaps quick, and the Picatinny rail on the forend gives you a solid attachment point for a bipod or tripod clamp when you need to stretch a shot across open country. A removable radial muzzle brake comes standard to tame recoil at the range or on the plains.
The stainless receiver is precision machined, drilled and tapped, and compatible with standard Remington 700 pattern optics bases, so scope mounting options are wide open. A spiral fluted bolt with an enlarged aluminum knob runs smooth under pressure, the enlarged ejection port keeps feeding and clearing simple, and the TriggerTech trigger breaks clean every time. Rounds ride in an internal magazine with a hinged aluminum floorplate, the setup most hunters prefer on a rifle that gets carried through brush and bounced around in truck racks. If you have been waiting for a wood-stocked rifle that shoots like a modern carbon gun, this is the one to handle.
With a 1:8 twist stabilizing heavy, high-BC bullets, this chambering shines on everything from pronghorn to elk and African plains game, and factory loads from Federal keep growing.
The 7mm Backcountry was designed from the ground up to run at higher pressures and produce magnum-level velocities from shorter barrels. A 20 inch barrel keeps this rifle compact and handy, especially with a suppressor attached, while still delivering the flat trajectory and downrange energy the cartridge is known for.
Yes. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24, and the factory radial brake is removable, so swapping to a suppressor or another muzzle device is straightforward. The shorter 20 inch barrel keeps overall length manageable once a can is attached.
The stainless receiver is drilled and tapped and accepts standard Remington 700 pattern optics bases, which is one of the most widely supported footprints out there. That means rings, one-piece rails, and mounts from just about every major optics brand will work.
No, the Ridgeline Safari feeds from an internal magazine with a hinged aluminum floorplate. Many hunters prefer this setup on a field rifle since there is no magazine to lose or rattle, and unloading is as simple as dropping the floorplate.
