mineralman55 Posted June 28, 2018 Report Posted June 28, 2018 After reading all the literature on this newest wildcat, it really seems to be living up to its hype. I searched the forum for it, and I didn't get a clear sense if anyone has actually bought on yet. Anyone on here own a .224 Valkyrie yet, build one, shoot one extensively, etc.? Just trying to get a feel for if it is worth getting into yet another caliber.
DNP Posted June 28, 2018 Report Posted June 28, 2018 That definitely triggers The Rule. Clock is ticking. Good luck.
Armed Eye Doc Posted June 28, 2018 Report Posted June 28, 2018 I thought @98Z5V has one or had plans to build one.

After seeing the performance of the 6.5 Grendel, I ended up with three Grendels. I see no need for a Valk now. I'll take the Grendel over it any day. (Spoiler Alert! There is probably gonna be a 4th Grendel hatched pretty soon...)

Its still just a .22 ,& I just can't get all that excited about it . Its got all the hype of the 6.5 CM though .
Sisco Posted June 28, 2018 Report Posted June 28, 2018 Was looking at a Norma 6.5 x 284 today, but ammo would have been a pain in the neck.

Robocop1051 Posted June 29, 2018 Report Posted June 29, 2018 Definitely something to be said about a 1200 to 1500 yard AR-15.

Try to come in all sly and act like you invoked the rule...after its already in the mail and on its way home to you.

Caught quite the lot of you that way, too.. I think I already had the part in-hand when I posted about it...
mineralman55 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Report Posted February 6, 2019 Been doing some more digging around about the .224 Valk. Maybe some teething pains. Seems that as more reports come in there are problems with accuracy/consistency of results, and there have been more than some difficulties in reloading. I'm still interested, but at this moment, there are better things to spend my money on. I hope people get the bugs worked out.
