    Thanks for the review. I just bought a Christensen Arms MPR in 6.5 Creedmoor and I love it! After removing 3 screws in the muzzle brake and adjusting the trigger to ~2 lbs. it shot ~ 1/2 inch groups at 100. But the real shocker was watching my friend shoot a ~ 5 inch group with the rifle at 600 yards in high wind. All his shots were at the same height, but the wind blew them left to right 5 inches. I was using 140 grain Hornady match ammo. I put an Arken EP5 5-25X56 FFP MIL VPR scope on it and ordered a silencer from Silencer Central. I hope to use it for hunting whitetail deer this fall down here in Alabama.

    Have 3 of them both Ridgeline and Messa's, wouldn't hunt with anything else now all shoot under 1" groups with wide verity of ammo. and vey reliable , Most of the negative reviews are from guys that can't afford one or never owned or shot one. ,

    Nice video, thanks for review. I was thinking about buying one, after this video I think I will stick with Sako 85.

    I have seen many people having issues with these rifles. Not just this model but the mpr also. People are barely getting 1" groups at 100 yards. Alot seem to be getting 1.5-2" groups. Not acceptable for the cost

    Enjoyed the review. Some keyboard commandos talk trash about those rifles. I've only held one in a store.

    I haven’t heard anything bad about these rifles my only problem is I’m left handed and they don’t make 30.06 in left hand so I can’t decide 7mm or 300 win mag maybe before I buy one they will make that 30.06 they have 6.5 308 7mm-08 but I’m looking for a do all rifle and leaning toward the 7mm rem mag or 300 win mag wishing they had 30.06?🤯🔫💣

    Tyrel Simpson we realized after the video that the windage turret was preventing the shell from being cleanly extracted. Good question!

    I bought a Christensen Arms 300 wsm and it was garbage. Wouldn’t group, poor ejection like this video, and very stiff action. After wasting a day and a couple hundred bucks in ammo on the tedious Christensen break in process I traded it in for a big loss.

    Operator error? Should have contacted CA; they will do anything to make it shoot right, if not the shooter. I have two of these, one Ridgeline and one Mesa and both are super accurate and light. Wife shoots the Mesa and no issues.

I'm not gonna gamble that much money on a rifle I could build myself. At this point in time though I don't imagine any company out there is going to have good customer service. Everyone is backed up right now

    @@rufkarma you sound like a slimy attorney who tries to turn things around on the victim. I don’t know what operator error you’re eluding to but the other dozen plus rifles I have for a fraction of the price shoot far superior. FYI the first thing I did was look to contact their customer service and quickly realized trading it in was the best option. That’s great you have two guns that work, you got lucky, for the price of a Christensen Arms they should all work or they should replace the gun when they sell you a piece of garbage with a false claim and “guarantee” of 1 moa.
