Modern precision shooting demands a balance of lightweight carry, stiff chassis, and components that deliver repeatable accuracy. For shooters who want a competition-ready or field-capable bolt gun without excess weight, this rifle brings a tactical-minded package that emphasizes carbon fiber, a precision contour barrel, and a modular chassis.

Design and Weight

The Modern Precision Rifle is built to break with tradition. Starting weight at 6.9 pounds makes the platform easy to carry on long stalks or across a competition course. The FFT carbon fiber stock with Magnelock Tech and six QD ports pairs lightness with durable attachment options. A folding stock increases transportability without sacrificing cheek weld—helpful for operators who need a compact package in vehicles or packs.

Barrel, Action, and Accuracy

The MPR ships with a 24″ 416R stainless steel barrel in a #4 contour, carbon fiber-wrapped for thermal stability and vibration control. The action and the stainless side-baffle muzzle brake are finished in Black Nitride for corrosion resistance and a low-friction surface. The 5/8×24 TPI muzzle and adjustable stainless side baffle brake reduce felt recoil and follow-up shot disturbance—critical when squeezing sub-MOA groups. Christensen Arms backs this package with their Sub-MOA Guarantee, an assurance many precision shooters expect at this level.

The MPR uses a TriggerTech trigger and accepts a single 5‑round AICS-style magazine, delivering a familiar, reliable feeding solution for bolt-action shooters. The free-floating carbon fiber handguard with M-LOK gives you accessory mounting flexibility while keeping weight down. View product details and pricing

Caliber and Applications

Chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, the MPR leverages a cartridge known for flat trajectories, high ballistic coefficients, and manageable recoil—ideal for target work, PRS-style matches, and medium-game hunting. The 20 MOA rail gives added elevation capability for long-range optics, and the carbon components reduce heat-induced point-of-impact shifts during extended strings.

Chassis, Ergonomics, and Value

A 7075 billet aluminum chassis provides the rigidity precision shooters want, while carbon fiber elements shave ounces. With a package price around $2,296.99, the MPR presents a competitive value for shooters prioritizing lightweight construction without compromising accuracy or modularity.
