This is the least expensive way to shoot long range with the AR15 platform.
It stays supersonic to at least 1000 yards, has the same drop as a 308 and way less recoil.
The 75 grain federal ammo can be found for .65 cents per round shipped to your house.
I have 2 uppers, the other is an 18, this performs a little better but I can live without the length.
224 Valkyrie complete upper
PSA 20 inch stainless barrel 1/6.5 twist
Matched toolcraft bcg bought as a kit
Aero precision receiver/adjustable gas block
This upper has about 200 rounds through it with the federal 75 grain and has been 100% reliable.
Shoots 27.5 minutes of drop at 800 yards slightly uphill
One 224 valkyrie/6.8 SPC duramag
One box of Federal 75 grain fmj
$370 with the bushnell engage 4-12 MOA scope/mount zeroed and tested to 800 yards.
$250 without the optic/mount
All of this was bought new earlier this year.
