They shoot very well also , but my Christensen is hands down my go to

I sent my Ridgeline back to CA right out of the box because the barrel looked horrible.  When it got back to them CA reached out to me and agreed.  They replaced the barrel and test fired it for groups as well as recorded the velocities with Hornady 147 match and 143 Prec. Hunter ammo.  It took a few weeks to get it back but it did indeed have a new barrel on it and they included the two targets as well as the recorded velocities from that ammo.  The Hornady 147 ELD-M ammo shot in the 3's at just a hair over 3K and the 143 ELD-X didn't shoot quite as well at a .5 and was just a tick slower.  Got it back mounted up the NX8 I had for it and my results mirrored what CA got when they shot it at the factory with the same ammo but from a different Lot#.

Can't say that I was overly thrilled I had to send a brand new gun back but CA was excellent to work with and when it came back it was exactly as they said, and, they paid for shipping both ways so I have nothing to complain about.

My CA Ridgeline shoots the 147 Hornady match ammo so well and though I have, two, sets of Redding 6.5 PRC dies, don't ask it was a total brainfart on my part, unless I start shooting it a lot more I'm not even going to bother with working up a load.

I'm a Sako/Tikka fan but I'd have a hard time spending that much for a non custom rifle and since my CA 6.5 PRC has turned out to shoot so well, between the two, I'd have to pick the CA Ridgeline.

Alchase:
I have three Sakos, two Finnlights, one in 7MM, the other in 300WM, and one Finnbear in 300WM.
All three are sub-MOA rifles. Never had an issue with either.
Fantastic rifles.
