Christensen Arms TFM 6.5 PRC 26-inch Long Range Rifle

The Christensen Arms TFM 6.5 PRC 26-inch Long Range Rifle is a production-ready precision tool built for shooters who demand consistent sub-MOA performance at extended distances. It mates a 26-inch Aerograde carbon-fiber-wrapped 416R stainless steel target barrel with a natural carbon fiber fixed stock featuring integrated bedding pillars, a Black Nitride-finished action, a full-length 20-MOA Picatinny rail, and an AICS-compatible detachable magazine. The removable titanium side-baffle muzzle brake and adjustable match trigger support repeatable accuracy round after round.

Key Features

• 26-inch Aerograde Carbon Fiber Wrapped Barrel – The 416R stainless steel core wrapped in carbon fiber sheds heat faster than a steel barrel of the same contour, maintaining consistent harmonics across strings of fire. That means your cold-bore zero holds through a 10-round stage.
• Black Nitride Action with 20-MOA Rail – The full-length 20-MOA Picatinny rail gives you the elevation adjustment range to reach 1,500+ yards without bottoming out your scope. The Black Nitride finish resists corrosion and reduces friction during cycling.
• Removable Titanium Side-Baffle Muzzle Brake – The titanium brake cuts recoil perception by approximately 40%, keeping your reticle on target for faster follow-up shots. It’s removable if you run a suppressor or prefer a bare muzzle.
• Adjustable Match Trigger – The trigger breaks clean at a user-adjustable pull weight (2.5–4.5 lb range per Christensen specs), with minimal overtravel. You can dial it to your preference without a gunsmith.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the long-range shooter who values weight savings without sacrificing barrel stiffness. If you’re shooting PRS matches, hunting open country at extended ranges, or building a precision rig that you can carry all day, the TFM’s 7.5-lb all-up weight and 26-inch barrel balance well. It’s not a bench-only gun—it’s a field-ready precision rifle that still holds sub-MOA.

Pros & Cons

• Pro: Sub-MOA accuracy out of the box with factory 6.5 PRC ammunition, verified by multiple independent testers.
• Pro: Lightweight carbon fiber stock with integrated bedding pillars eliminates the need for aftermarket chassis work.
• Con: The fixed stock has no length-of-pull adjustment—shooters with shorter or longer arms may need to add a spacer or aftermarket cheek riser. Christensen does offer a spacer kit, but it’s not included.
