[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 2939342, member: 74061"] I’ve heard that The Valkyrie is hard to tune and hard on brass. However there is a guy in our club that has won the last two Intermediate cartridge matches in a row. It’s mostly an AR match but bolt guns are allowed as long as the cartridge is factory loaded in an AR-15 rifle and the loaded cartridge will fit inside a steel AR15 magazine. We shoot increasingly smaller plates from 12” down to 2” at odd ranges from 249 out to 526yds. I’ve got a sweet bolt action 6ARC capable of 1/2 MOA but I lost to an AR15 Valkyrie by 4-points. I was able to beat him twice in the side match at 722yds, but just by one plate. I’m building a 22ARC just to see how it runs but Kenny from Desert Precision claims he’s getting 2940fps with an 80.5 grain Berger from his 22DPC wildcat which just a 6ARC necked down to 224 with a .249 neck bushing. Thats faster than the Valkyrie. [/QUOTE]
