Anybody know if you can convert the Christensen Arms Ridgeline to a detachable magazine?

I don't know for certain, just speculating here, but aren't the CA actions Rem 700 clones and share the same footprint?  If that is true, just about any DM system should work, but like I said, I'm just speculating on that so maybe someone will know for sure.

I would email them, they sell a detachable magazine bottom on their accessory page.
When I pass, do not let my wife sell the guns for what I told her they cost.

Thanks for the feed back- just checking to se if anybody knew for sure on here. It is based on the 700 action, on their website I only saw it for the Mesa - I will contact them direct

It looks like it is possibly m5 inlet pattern. If so your stock would need inlet to accept it.

Just a heads up there are much cheaper m5 aics bottom metals out there.

So ended up talking with Christensen a couple times about this - it ends up that they have the mag bottom metal on their website , but they don’t actually sell it. They said it was a mistake that needs to be corrected.
My rifle is currently at Benchmark Barrels for the conversion and should be finished next week. They are converting it to HS Precision bottom metal and mag

I didn’t think so either - coulda went with cheaper parts, but the HS parts seemed solid!
Going to be much happier with it now

I’m going to end up doing the same thing with mine. What caliber are you shooting. I currently have the 300 rum. I bought the side babble brake for it as well. Do most of my shooting from the prone position. No bench shooting. That radial brake blows shat everywhere.
