Christensen Arms, manufacturer of state-of-the-art precision firearms and carbon fiber barrels, is proud to announce they have won the On Target Editor’s Choice Award for the Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT rifle. According to award organizers, product nominations were based on innovation, technical merit, performance and value for the dollar. Since its introduction, the Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT has quickly set the standard in the bolt-action rifle category.

On Target Editor’s Choice Awards are reserved for the “best of the best” new products - those which demonstrate outstanding technical achievement and/or represent an extraordinary value for the price. Among the current crop of bolt-action rifles, the Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT raised the bar the highest within this category, earning it the 2022 On Target Editor’s Choice Award.

“We couldn’t be more thrilled to win this coveted award from On Target Magazine,” said Willie Vernon, Executive Vice President of Marketing, Christensen Arms. “Christensen Arms is always pushing the envelope to ensure our customers have the lightest, most durable, highest performing, and most accurate rifles imaginable whether they’re on a dream hunt or ringing steel at the range. The Ridgeline FFT is a perfect embodiment of these priorities, and we’re honored to have been recognized by On Target Magazine.”

The new Ridgeline FFT utilizes the latest in carbon fiber manufacturing, making it up to a full pound lighter while introducing additional features such as an FFT carbon fiber floor plate and bolt knob. The new side-baffle brake and stylish paint scheme distinguish the new model even further, all while retaining the Christensen Arms Sub-MOA Guarantee.

Utilizing an aerospace monocoque shell, Flash Forged Technology (FFT) eliminates unnecessary internal weight. The result is a FFT designed stock that is up to a full pound lighter than traditionally manufactured carbon fiber composite rifle stocks – creating a more consistent shooting foundation while reducing user fatigue in the field. FFT is available exclusively on select Christensen Arms firearms.

“With rifles, the words ‘lightweight’ and ‘accurate’ don’t always go together,” said Ben Battles, Editor, On Target Magazine. “They do with the Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT; a new version of the Ridgeline rifle that delivers superb accuracy in a go-anywhere package tipping the scales at a mere 5.3 pounds. That’s just one of the many reasons why the FFT has earned our Editor’s Choice Award.”
