Christensen Arms Ridgeline or Browning Hells Canyon in 6.5 PRC

[COhntr]

Looking at getting into the 6.5 prc pool and i am trying to decide between these two rifles. Unfortunately with a daughter in college, my budget isn't huge and these two are in the range as to what i can spend. Looking for some good advice and input from anyone who has either rifle. Thanks in advance

I havnt had good luck with brownings... I have no experience with with Christensen but I won't be buying anymore brownings.

Browning with 1-7 twist Great now and better in the future as bullets get longer and heavier. I looked long and hard at the 2 and in the end I bought 1 X Bolt Hells Canyon Speed and 1 X Bolt Pro Longe Range in 6.5 PRC. Browning had too many Pluses and sub 1/2 MOA 5 shot groups

I have also been looking really hard at the Ridgeline. Curious to what everyone's input is here.

I would call up Mike at Hells Canyon and talk with him about there options. Leave browning out of it.

Why leave Browning out of it? Do you own one?
All my X-bolts have been great shooters.

I have not owned 1, and no doubt they can be good guns, but if i have access to the cow why would I pay the milk man.
