Description
Most precision rifles make you choose between weight you can live with and accuracy you can count on. The BA Tactical from Christensen Arms splits that difference better than most. At its core is a 24 inch target-contour barrel, button-rifled 416R stainless steel wrapped in aero-grade carbon fiber, free-floated and match chambered. That carbon wrap keeps weight down and stiffness up, which matters when you're packing a rifle to a match stage or holding steady for a follow-up shot. Chambered in 6mm Creedmoor, you get a mild-recoiling round with a seriously flat trajectory that has earned its keep in PRS-style competition and long-range steel work.
What Sets the BA Tactical Apart
The Black Nitride action is machined with a full-length integral 20 MOA rail, so there's no separate base to work loose and you've got built-in elevation for stretching distance. The spiral-fluted bolt runs smooth with an oversized knob for fast cycling from awkward positions, and the enlarged ejection port keeps brass clearing cleanly. Up front, the removable stainless side-baffle brake tames what little recoil 6mm Creedmoor produces, and the 5/8×24 threaded muzzle means swapping to a suppressor is a five-minute job. The match-grade trigger breaks clean in the 2.5 to 3.5 pound range.
A Stock Built to Fit You, Not the Other Way Around
The carbon fiber composite tactical stock adjusts for length of pull and comb height, so you can dial in proper eye alignment behind big glass instead of craning your neck. You also get a bottom Picatinny rail for a bipod, five flush cup mounts for sling setups, a LimbSaver recoil pad, and a tactical grip shaped for prone and barricade shooting. Feeding runs through AICS-pattern detachable magazines with a 4+1 capacity, and one 5-round mag comes in the box.
Christensen Arms Accuracy You Can Bank On
Every BA Tactical is backed by the Christensen Arms Sub-MOA guarantee. Pair it with quality glass and match ammo, and this rifle will hold up its end of the bargain at distances that make most factory guns nervous.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Christensen Arms BA Tactical suppressor ready?
Yes. The muzzle is threaded 5/8×24, which is the standard pattern for most 30 caliber and smaller suppressors and muzzle devices. The factory side-baffle brake is removable, so you can run the brake, a can, or a thread protector depending on the day.
What magazines does the BA Tactical use?
It feeds from AICS-pattern detachable box magazines, which is the most common short-action precision mag standard out there. One 5-round magazine ships with the rifle, and aftermarket options from Magpul, MDT, and Accuracy International will drop right in. This model runs a 4+1 capacity with the included mag.
How accurate is the BA Tactical in 6mm Creedmoor?
Christensen Arms backs every BA Tactical with their Sub-MOA guarantee, meaning it will print sub 1-inch groups at 100 yards with quality match ammunition. The free-floated carbon fiber wrapped barrel and match-grade trigger do a lot of the heavy lifting there. 6mm Creedmoor is also one of the easiest cartridges to shoot well thanks to its light recoil and flat trajectory.
Why pick 6mm Creedmoor over 6.5 Creedmoor in this rifle?
The 6mm pushes lighter, high-BC bullets faster with noticeably less recoil, which makes spotting your own impacts easier and is a big reason it dominates in precision rifle competition. The 6.5 holds an edge for hunting heavier game and barrel life. If your plans lean toward steel, matches, and range days, the 6mm Creedmoor is a great fit for this platform.
