.224 Valkyrie Ammo Prices

Federal's 2017 pitch to give the AR-15 real long range legs with heavy .22 caliber match bullets and for a hot minute the internet could talk about nothing else. The hype outran the reality a bit and the 6mm ARC eventually stole its thunder but the round shoots well and keeps a loyal following. A good cartridge that arrived to enormous fanfare.

Loads run 60 to 90 grain split between varmint and heavy match. A specialty caliber priced above 5.56 with production that has thinned since the hype years. Case deals surface for the shooter who watches.
