Christensen Arms guarantees sub-MOA accuracy with this rifle. The carbon fiber stock is built around a rigid foam core, keeping things stable without adding unnecessary weight. The 22” fluted barrel has a radial brake to help manage recoil. The titanium action features a 60° bolt lift for faster operation and keeps weight down. It comes from the factory with a TriggerTech trigger, breaking cleanly between 2.5 and 3.5 pounds – no need to upgrade.
The .28 Nosler cartridge offers similar ballistics to a .300 Winchester Magnum, but in a shorter action. This makes for a lighter rifle and smoother bolt operation. Be aware that .28 Nosler ammunition can be more expensive and harder to find than common calibers like .308 Winchester or 6.5 Creedmoor. Reloading is a good option to consider if you plan on shooting it often.
