Description

The Federal Gold Medal .224 Valkyrie 90gr Sierra MatchKing BTHP (Federal part no. GM224VLK1) is a .224 Valkyrie load built around a 90-grain Sierra MatchKing boat tail hollow point for precision and match shooting. Federal tunes this load for the accuracy and uniformity that separate practice ammo from match ammo. The Sierra MatchKing boat-tail hollow point is machined to exacting tolerances for concentricity and jacket uniformity, the standard by which most other match bullets are measured. In rifle ammunition, this is the load worth feeding a precision rifle or pistol built to shoot small groups.
