BUYER BEWARE
BUYER BEWARE: I own 2 Ridgeline rifles. My 300RUM is an older model and shoots sub MOA. My wife’s 270 is newer production and cannot even shoot MOA. I reload and still no go. Christensen was purchased by Ancor Capital Partners in 2019. They have nothing to do with the firearms industry. They have ramped up production however w quality has steadfastly gone down hill. Most common issue is accuracy specifically failure to not only meet the sub MOA guarantee but most recent production barrels do not even meet standard MOA. Rifles are sent in for warranty and returned as repaired and test fired with a digitized target stating said rifle met sub MOA requirements. However, several instances have been well documented of said rifles being returned with metal shavings in the action after barrel replacement thus negating an accurate test fire or a test fire at all. The company has been informed of issues in public forums such as Facebook only for anyone stating facts even in a calm and respectful manner to be banned. Customers whom ask for a refund are refused and asked to send their rifle back again. Some instances rifles have been sent in more than 3 times. Most reputable gunsmiths have a pile of Christensen barrels and will testify to the inadequacy in quality. They are absolutely inconsistent and most require a shooter to have extensive reloading experience in order to get it to shoot. In my opinion, any bolt action firearm should at least shoot MOA. A bolt action rifle that starts in the 1500.00 range should absolutely shoot at a minimum MOA with any off the shelf ammo.
