Overview of 224 Valkyrie Ammo
224 Valkyrie is a .224-caliber rifle cartridge designed for long-range shooting from an AR-15 platform. It pushes heavy, high-ballistic-coefficient bullets in the 75 to 90 grain range fast enough to stay supersonic well past 1,000 yards, with very light recoil.
It is built on the 6.8 SPC case, so rifles use a 6.8 SPC bolt and magazines with a 224 Valkyrie barrel. 224 Valkyrie is not interchangeable with 223 Remington or 5.56 NATO. For a standard AR-15 round, see our 223 ammo, and for another 6.8 SPC-based option, see our 6.8 SPC ammo.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I shoot 224 Valkyrie in a 223 or 5.56 AR-15?
No. 224 Valkyrie uses a different, wider case. A 224 Valkyrie AR needs a 224 Valkyrie barrel, a 6.8 SPC bolt, and 6.8 SPC magazines. Only fire 224 Valkyrie ammunition in rifles chambered for 224 Valkyrie.
How far can 224 Valkyrie shoot?
With heavy 88gr to 90gr match bullets, 224 Valkyrie stays supersonic well past 1,000 yards, which makes it one of the longest-reaching cartridges that fits an AR-15 sized rifle.
What twist rate does 224 Valkyrie need?
Most 224 Valkyrie barrels use a 1:7 twist, which stabilizes heavy 88gr to 90gr bullets. Slower twist barrels may only stabilize lighter bullets in the 60gr to 75gr range.
More About 224 Valkyrie Ammo
Federal introduced the 224 Valkyrie in 2017. The goal was to give AR-15 shooters true long-range performance in a light, low-recoil rifle by pairing the 6.8 SPC case with long, sleek .224 bullets.
It quickly caught on with long-range target shooters and predator hunters who want to spot their own hits through the scope. Today several major manufacturers load it, from budget practice rounds to premium match ammunition.
