    224 Valkyrie Brass

    Gidday Guys - to scratch an itch to have a "light recoil wind bucker" in the cabinet I took a punt on a Savage 110 in Valkyrie - yes a complete orphan.

    Got it to the range this arvo and I reckon its going to be a "hammer". Shot a test ladder with Sierra 80s and Varget, the 6 shots of the ladder went into 20mm at 100, and the 5 shot group I'd speced based on GRTs OBT function was a smidge over 10mm.

    Now it looks like itll shoot I'll try some more components Hornady 88gn ELD-Ms are on the list.

    However I need more Starline brass, Ive been round the usual online traps and can only get Hornady . .... so if you have seen any Starline Valkyrie brass lurkkng in your LGS I sure appreciate a heads up.

    Yes it can be made from 6.8 SPC, and I do have plenty of it, but I'd prefer new if I can get it!

    I believe gun city have a whole lot of federal cartridges if that can be of any help? Around 49$ for a box of 20. They might give you a discount if you buy a hundred at a time.
