The Christensen Arms Mesa Long Range 6.5 Creedmoor is a short-barrel precision hunting rifle in Burnt Bronze Cerakote (Christensen Arms part no. 801-02006-01). Its 16.25-inch free-floating stainless barrel is threaded and fitted with a removable side-baffle brake, which keeps the rifle compact and manageable in a blind or a truck. The carbon fiber composite stock adjusts for length of pull and comb height with spacers, so it fits you behind a scope. A TriggerTech trigger and a spot-bedded action carry the accuracy. This Christensen Arms model is aimed at hunters and long-range shooters who want a shorter barrel without giving up a threaded muzzle.
