Most long range rifles are, well, long. Christensen Arms took a different route with this version of the Mesa Long Range, pairing their precision-built action with a 16.25 inch threaded barrel in 6.5 Creedmoor. The result is a bolt gun that balances beautifully, slides in and out of a truck or blind without a fight, and turns into a genuinely pleasant rifle once you spin a suppressor onto the 5/8×24 muzzle threads. Short barreled 6.5 Creedmoor gives up a bit of velocity on paper, but with modern match loads it still holds its own way past where most of us do our shooting.
The trigger is a TriggerTech unit, which means a crisp, repeatable break with none of the creep that plagues budget bolt guns. The stainless steel receiver comes drilled and tapped so mounting a scope base is straightforward, and the whole rifle wears a Tungsten gray Cerakote finish that shrugs off weather and rough handling. Feeding is handled by a 4+1 capacity in 6.5 Creedmoor, plenty for hunting or a steady string on steel.
The black polymer stock with gray webbing includes an adjustable cheek riser, and that matters more than people think. Dial in your cheek weld to match your scope height and you get a consistent sight picture shot after shot, which is half the battle in precision work. It is a practical, no-nonsense stock that fits the rifle's purpose.
This setup shines as a suppressed hunting rig or a compact precision rifle for tight shooting positions. Christensen Arms backs their rifles with a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee, so you are not gambling on whether it will group. Feed it quality ammo, do your part, and this little Mesa will make you look good.
Yes, the barrel comes threaded in the standard 5/8×24 pattern, which fits the vast majority of 6.5mm and .30 caliber suppressors and muzzle devices. The short 16.25 inch barrel keeps overall length manageable even with a can attached, which is a big part of this rifle's appeal.
You will give up some velocity compared to a 24 or 26 inch barrel, usually in the neighborhood of 25 to 30 feet per second per inch. That said, 6.5 Creedmoor from a 16.25 inch barrel still delivers plenty of energy and accuracy for hunting and mid to long range target work. For most real-world shooting inside 600 to 800 yards, you will never miss the extra barrel.
Christensen Arms backs their rifles with a sub-MOA guarantee when fed quality match-grade ammunition. Between the hand-fit action, the TriggerTech trigger, and the free-floated threaded barrel, this rifle has the ingredients to group well right out of the box.
Yes, the receiver comes drilled and tapped from the factory, so adding a rail or bases is simple. Pair that with the adjustable cheek riser on the stock and you can set up a proper cheek weld for just about any scope and ring height combination.
