Christensen Arms Ridgeline .300 PRC – Used
The Christensen Arms Ridgeline .300 PRC is a premium bolt-action hunting rifle engineered for shooters who want serious long-range capability without the excessive weight commonly associated with magnum rifles. Combining Christensen Arms’ lightweight construction with a carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel and the powerful .300 PRC cartridge, this rifle is well suited for western hunting, big-game pursuits, and precision shooting at extended distances.
This example features a distinctive gray-green composite stock with black webbing, providing a rugged, understated appearance that pairs well with the rifle’s stainless and carbon-fiber components. The stock incorporates a traditional hunting profile with a raised comb, textured grip areas, sling swivel studs, and a recoil pad.
The rifle is equipped with Christensen Arms’ signature carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel, terminating in a multi-port muzzle brake to help manage the recoil generated by the .300 PRC. A Picatinny-style scope rail is already mounted to the receiver, providing a versatile foundation for installing a quality hunting or long-range optic.

Carbon-Fiber-Wrapped Barrel
One of the defining features of the Christensen Arms Ridgeline is its carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel. Rather than relying on a conventional heavy steel barrel profile, Christensen Arms uses carbon-fiber technology to reduce weight while maintaining the rigidity required from a precision-oriented hunting rifle.
This construction is particularly valuable on a rifle chambered in .300 PRC, where barrel performance and overall rifle weight can both become important considerations. The result is a rifle designed to remain practical to carry while still offering the characteristics expected from a serious long-range hunting platform.
At the muzzle, a multi-port brake helps reduce felt recoil and muzzle movement, making the powerful .300 PRC more manageable from field and supported shooting positions.
Chambered in .300 PRC
The .300 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) has quickly established itself as a formidable modern .30-caliber magnum. Designed around long, high-ballistic-coefficient projectiles, the cartridge offers excellent retained velocity, energy, and wind performance at extended distances.
When paired with a rifle such as the Christensen Arms Ridgeline, the .300 PRC provides an impressive combination for hunters pursuing appropriate big game in open country where longer shots may be encountered.
Its ballistic capabilities also make the platform attractive to shooters interested in long-range recreational and precision shooting.
Lightweight Composite Stock
The Ridgeline's gray-green composite stock with black webbing combines lightweight construction with a traditional hunting-rifle profile. Textured areas around the grip and forend provide additional purchase, while the raised comb helps establish a consistent cheek position behind a mounted optic.
A recoil pad at the buttstock provides additional comfort when shooting the hard-hitting .300 PRC, and sling swivel studs allow the rifle to be configured with a traditional hunting sling.
Optics-Ready Long-Range Platform
A Picatinny-style rail is mounted over the receiver, allowing the next owner to select an optic appropriate for the rifle's intended purpose.
Given the capabilities of the .300 PRC, pairing the Ridgeline with quality magnified glass can create a highly capable hunting setup for open-country and extended-range applications.
Premium Hunting Rifle Construction
The Ridgeline is built around Christensen Arms' emphasis on reducing unnecessary weight while retaining the features hunters expect from a precision bolt-action rifle. The stainless/silver-tone action, carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel, composite stock, muzzle brake, and optics-ready receiver create a rifle that is equally at home in the mountains or across wide-open western terrain.
For hunters accustomed to carrying traditional heavy-barreled magnum rifles, the Ridgeline's use of lightweight materials is one of its most compelling advantages.
