Loaded with a 60-grain Hornady® V-Max® bullet, the 224 Valkyrie destroys everything from prairie dogs to coyotes. The polymer tip, hollow nose cavity and thin jacket produce superior accuracy and explosive expansion.
The 224 Valkyrie is built to defeat wind drift and drop, and the 60-grain Nosler® Ballistic Tip® Varmint maximizes these built-in ballistics with a sleek, thin-jacket, polymer-tipped bullet. Its explosive expansion provides a violent energy release on impact for quick kills on varmints and predators.

The MSR 15 has never offered practical 1,000-yard performance. That's all changed thanks to the heavier bullets and extremely high ballistic coefficients of new 224 Valkyrie.

New 224 Valkyrie provides comparable ballistics as larger counterparts like 6.5 Creedmoor but with as little as half the felt recoil.
The 90-grain Gold Medal Sierra MatchKing 224 Valkyrie can tackle the most elite competition. However, loaded with other available bullets, the cartridge is also lethal on varmints and medium game. Gel shot at 100 yards with 60-grain Nosler Ballistic Tip (P224VLKBT1).
