    Recommendation for a 20” barrel for a precision build?

    I’ve definitely heard great things about Proof. I think most of the ammo tests I’ve seen conducted by Molon have been done with a 20” Lothar Walther barrel and its hard to argue with the results Thanks for the two suggestions

    Recommendation for a 20” barrel for a precision build?

    I’ve currently got a 16” Rainier Ultramatch Mod 2 in my rifle and it’s serving me well, however, I’d like to get a slightly longer barrel for the type of matches I’m shooting in, velocity increase, etc I like the look of two that I’ve found: 1.Rainier Arms UltraMatch Mod2 SDM. 20”, Rifle...

    Gas block?

    What kind of can? Some are known for more back pressure than others. Unless you’re pinning on the muzzle device, there’s no harm in waiting til you get the can you see how it runs as-is.

    224 Valkyrie ..? what is your opinion ?

    100% agree. In fact, whatever publication doing testing should’ve realized something was amiss and contacted the supplier of the barrel/rifle

    224 Valkyrie ..? what is your opinion ?

    I should add that’s with a Recce 5 suppressor so there might be a little bit of freebore boost in there. Did not measure unsuppressed speed at the time but it was using 10rd avg with a LabRadar chrono Yes. I shot the “old box” FGMMs (didn’t shoot well), the “new box” FGMMs and despite the...

    Tripod help

    I got a BOG Deathgrip for my first one. Used it for my 600yd and in shooting just fine. Under $140 shipped on Amazon now. But there are people who will definitely turn their nose up at them. Gotta start somewhere though, and sometimes you can’t afford to go all out

    224 Valkyrie ..? what is your opinion ?

    I shoot matches <800yds with a 20” barrel Rainier Ultramatch Mod 2 and my go-to is an 80gr ELD over 24.8gr H4895 mainly due to velocity gain over 88s/90s and cost of the bullets. I’m around 2910fps with that barrel length. Could go hotter/faster, but the accuracy was the same but the primer...

    What are yall using Varget for?

    I’ve got about 12 unopened pounds left fortunately. Shooting heavy 223 and 224 Valkyrie 90gr SMKs primarily with it. I also load .308 with it when I can’t find 2000MR

    Where are the factory 224 Valkyrie bolt action rifles?

    At my match last weekend, my Stoners were running fine and a guy was having issues with PRI and some other brand I hadn’t heard of. My Stoners were fine (10 and 15 round) but my OAL is 2.290” Honestly I think it comes down to testing whatever brand and making sure it functions like it...

    Where are the factory 224 Valkyrie bolt action rifles?

    I had an extraordinarily accurate Mossberg MVP 5.56 24” Varmint model. I’d give the MVP-LR in 224 Valkyrie a shot. Adjustable stock, 22” 1:7 twist barrel... It’s probably my next long gun purchase just to see how it compares

    Suppressors AR15 Suppressor - Q Plan B capability

    Well, threads are threads. Unless you cross thread them, and that’s user error versus a failure. Latches on the other hand have a multitude of ways to fail depending on the design.

    Threads are far less likely to fail than latches.

    Suppressors Griffin Armament Optimus Micro

    I’ve got well over a thousand rounds of 5.56 through my Optimus Micro and around 500 rounds of 224 Valkyrie (20”) with the taper mount adapter. I’ve used it for hunting (took a six point with it on an AR this past season) and it’s been on my precision/competition 5.56 AR for the last handful of...
