Be very cautious of those rifles. Do your research - they are known for inaccurate and defective barrels right out of the box. You honestly couldn't pay me to shoot a CA Ridgeline/Mesa rifle. You can be MUCH further ahead with a Remington 700 platform and pick your barrel, stock, etc.
What research? On the internet?
LOL.
99 guys will say good to go, but guaranteed at least one will differ, EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
Like anything, there are specific forums and groups for everything out there. Go join the CA Arms Facebook group and read your heart out. I was once on the fence buying one when I didn't know any better. Again, if that's the risk you want to take...knock yourself out. Me, I will put my hard earned money elsewhere and not take the chance.
For the money those rifles cost, you can build yourself a rifle that is tried true and proven. Why would you take the gamble? No thanks.
