For those of you shooting the Valkyrie - what do you think? Shooter or not? Is it replacing another gun? Do you feel like it has staying power in your own gun arsenal and rotation - or has the "new" worn off and you are going back to something else? Still on the fence myself as to whether to get one. I am not wanting a hunting rife just something to get to 800-1000 yards with limited recoil and reasonable accuracy.

Again? This has been covered very well. There’s plenty of us running Valkyrie with nothing but praise for the round.
The reloading thread is a good place to see real world accuracy and velocities with various bullets and you can plug into a ballistic calculator to get the idea for yourself what they’ll do at distance.
It’s the best commercially supported round for LR target shooting that’s been stuffedin a AR15. Period. Mine is here to stay.

I put a lot of weight (14.5 lbs) into my build and it has almost no recoil. Did some interesting damage to the targets... Not only a keeper, it's getting stuffed and mounted and shown to guests when they arrive.
It's a 24.5" barrel and I didn't use any weight saving parts. The scope is a cheaper ffp Burris that weighs a ton and I counted that in the weight as well as the bipod etc...
The other reason I can think of for the low recoil is the JP SCS, but probably mostly the weight.
