.224 Valkyrie Breaking the mystery surrounding the cartridge.
Posted by Range Tech on
So, is the .224 Valkyrie worth the time and effort? In short yes, and maybe no. Yes, if you're willing to invest in Redding Type S Full dies and a Forster Co-Ax press, learn some stuff about precision reloading; and no, if you're not. The simple fact of the matter is that the factory 88 and 90 grain loads have a poor form factor and poor miller stability. Guys have tried to band aid this by going to a tighter twist rate but it still doesn't solve your velocity issues.
