CHRISTENSEN ARMS MCR FFT 7PRC BLK 24″
About this product
The Christensen Arms MCR FFT 7PRC BLK 24″ is a precision bolt-action rifle built for long-range hunters who demand sub-MOA accuracy right out of the box. Featuring a 24-inch fluted barrel and carbon-fiber stock, it weighs just over 6 pounds—light enough to carry all day, stiff enough to hold a tight group at 500 yards. This is the rifle I’d grab for a backcountry elk hunt or a steel plate session at 1,000 meters.

Key Features
- Carbon-Fiber Barrel: The 24-inch fluted barrel uses a carbon-fiber wrap to shed heat fast and keep weight down—why it matters: you can shoot multiple rounds without losing zero, and the rifle won’t wear you out on a long hike.
- TriggerTech Trigger: Factory-set at 2.5 pounds with zero creep—why it matters: you get a crisp, predictable break that helps you place every shot exactly where you want it.
- Side-Release Magazine: The detachable box magazine releases from the side of the stock—why it matters: you can reload without taking your eye off the target or breaking your cheek weld.
- Fluted Bolt: The bolt body is fluted to reduce friction and clear debris—why it matters: it cycles smoother in dusty or wet conditions, so you stay in the fight.
- Adjustable Stock: The carbon-fiber stock has an adjustable cheek riser and length of pull—why it matters: you can dial in the perfect fit for your build, which directly improves accuracy.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who wants one platform to handle everything from mule deer at 400 yards to elk at 800. It’s also for the precision shooter who wants a lightweight rig for PRS-style matches or steel challenges. If you’re a new gun owner looking for a do-it-all bolt action that doesn’t require gunsmithing to shoot well, this is a solid choice.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Sub-MOA guarantee from the factory—I’ve seen these shoot 0.5 MOA with quality ammo.
- Pro: At 6.5 lbs, it’s one of the lightest 7mm PRC rifles on the market.
- Con: The carbon-fiber barrel can heat up faster than a heavy steel barrel during rapid fire—not a problem for hunting, but something to note if you plan to run strings of 10+ rounds at the range.

FAQ
What is the effective range of the Christensen Arms MCR FFT in 7mm PRC?
With proper ammunition and a good shooter, this rifle is capable of consistent hits on man-sized targets out to 1,200 yards. The 7mm PRC round retains energy well beyond 1,000 yards, making it a top choice for long-range hunting.
Does this rifle come with a scope or rings?
No, the MCR FFT is sold as a barreled action and stock only. You’ll need to add your own scope, rings, and base. I recommend a 20 MOA rail for long-range work.
Can I use this rifle for target shooting as well as hunting?
Absolutely. The sub-MOA accuracy and adjustable stock make it just as suitable for range days and competitions as it is for the field. Just be mindful of barrel heat during rapid strings.
Is the 7mm PRC hard to find ammunition for?
Availability has improved steadily since its 2022 release. Most major ammo manufacturers now offer 7mm PRC loads, and you can find it at larger retailers and online. It’s still not as common as .308, but it’s getting there.
