The Christensen Arms Mesa FFT is a full-size bolt-action rifle chambered in .22 Creedmoor, built on a 20-inch threaded barrel finished in tungsten gray Cerakote. The barrel is button-rifled, hand-lapped, and free-floated inside a carbon fiber FFT stock with gray accents, and the rifle feeds from a 4-round magazine.

Owners of the Mesa FFT generally praise Christensen Arms build quality, pointing to the fit of the carbon fiber stock and the smooth action cycling as evidence of careful assembly. The tungsten gray Cerakote finish holds up well to handling, and complaints about the action itself are uncommon, which owners chalk up to the tight machining.

As a lightweight bolt gun, the Mesa carries easily on long hikes and mountain hunts, and the FFT stock keeps overall weight down compared to older Christensen Arms models. Some shooters find the slim carbon fiber stock less comfortable to hold steady off a bench than a heavier target-style stock, but for carrying afield most consider that a fair tradeoff.

On value, the Mesa FFT sits at a premium price point, and owners weigh that against the carbon-wrapped barrel and TriggerTech trigger that come standard. Those already invested in Christensen Arms rifles like the shared optics mounting pattern, which makes swapping scopes between guns straightforward, though some newer owners still balk at the cost of entry.
