224 Valkyrie bullet choice

[Rumblingdwarf]

I have been shooting a bit of 224 Valkyrie. I have an 18inch ballistic adavntage barrel and it shoots 1moa is with a 75 ELD. I am jumping the 75 eld about .050". I recently acquired 500 of the Barnes 85 grain Match Burners and they might be the ticket if your .224 Valkyrie has a long throat like most gas guns do. This bullet will allow seating close to the lands and still be within the limits of an AR15 magazine. Left to right.

90 SMK
80 AMAX
85 Match Burner
75 ELD
73 ELD
77 Custom Comp

Loaded case with an 85 match Burner touching the lands. 2.208 OAL. Food for thought for anyone using a .224 Valkyrie gas gun.

I’ll be interested in seeing your results on target and at distance.
