I've been running a 224 Valkyrie bolt gun for about 8 months now. Shoots very well. I've ran it in PRS style matches. Very easy to hit 1000 yards. I'm running the 88gr ELDM at around 2830 with XBR and 205. I did notice with BR4s I was getting another 30 fps. A couple of weekends ago, we did the small game match with very small targets and it shot well in 17-23 mph winds. Have to trust the hold call... lol. I want to clarify that my 224 bolt action was mounted on an MPA Hybrid and I switched to the MDT ACC. But both chassis handled it very well. I use the same magazine set up as MPA uses. AICS with Primal Rights 6BR adapter. Also the elevation holds are a little better than a 6.5 Creedmoor but very similar inside of 800 yards.
