I was out brass jewing on the weekend and came upon two boxes worth of strange brass I haven’t seen before and as I rubbed my hands in delight I saw they were .224 Valkyrie.
So now that the dust has settled, what’s the verdict on .224 Valkyrie? Is 6.5 Grendel finished?
Much like how 6.5 mememore is irrelevant because 270 Winchester exists, 224 valk is pointless because 243 Winchester exists.
Brody Powell
Do you actually not know the differences between mememore and 270? Those aren’t even remotely similar
Kayden King
.270 shoots flatter for longer, while also going out farther.
Gavin Peterson
The entire raisin detra for .224 the ability to feed from a standard AR15 lower.
Jeremiah Fisher
>this heavier larger platform bolt gun round performs better than a smaller gas gun round Crazy huh? See above. Also its mememoor
Dylan Garcia
Your retarded the stated reason for both rounds existing is to attempt that type of performance in an AR platform gun. The only reason to get either in a bolt gun is ammo prices, and availability.
Blake Williams
>hurr durr a bigger casing can hold way more powder no fucking shit user
Julian Sanders
That makes even less sense because 6.5 while in it's fad hype years it's still not as popular as 270 win or 300wm for matches.
Literally who is shooting this meme cartridge and not saving their brass?
Mason Young
>Haha I cherry picked literal who matches from my gun club down the street we love wildcats
Who cares faggot. 6.5 cree is a meme round.
Jack Carter
Oh yeah 6.5 literally who ARs are just flying off the shelves. Mememore is being sold as a bolt gun round and it's completely retarded in that role. Failure of a cartridge.
Sebastian Rivera
Literally the list of the top calibers used by PRS shooters. But even if it was literal who shooters it would be even better proof people arent using 270 and 300wm.
Even as a bolt gun round your still going from a short action to long action round.
Jordan Clark
>buyers remorse
At least you can reload it when your stupid wildcat runs dry on the shelf in a decade.
Nolan Powell
> wildcat Slow night?
Robert Parker
Tell me how 257 roberts is doing cause that shit was flying off the shelf at one point too. Shit round.
Matthew Nguyen
>raisin detra raison d'être
John Cooper
did mememoor fuck your mom or something?
Kevin Lee
Were you the guy in the orange shirt that brought his girlfriend to the Scotia range at around 3:00 Saturday? An older guy that I know never picks up his brass was shooting a new .224 Valkyrie upper and I saw this guy picking up brass in the same general area later.
224 valkerie had its chance and failed. No accuracy produced like it was touted. Everything new is a meme round like .25-45 sharps, it's just a fuckin fad, that will hopefully go away soon.
