224 Valk Upper Build CLE vs Craddock

[USMC 308]

Looking to have a .224 Valkyrie complete upper built.....either Compass Lake Engineering or Craddock Precision.

Craddock is out of parts and cannot give a timeline yet....could be many months.

CLE quoted a 10-12 week build time.

Both would be with a Bartlein 1/7 22" barrel.

Is one manufacturer superior, or more consistent for precision to the other?

I have a JP 223 Precision Upper that is a .5 moa gun or better ...... but I do not see where JP offers .224V as an option for their upper build.

...you would be well served by either, many users report positive results for both. Based on your comments, it would appear availability/delivery time is a factor for you, which your comment indicates CLE can meet your delivery times better (at this time) than Craddock. Make a decision and go with it, further delay will just make it longer to accomplish as demand & supply changes..

I'm in the queue with Craddock.....acquiring ammo as we speak. Scope and mount are in hand.

Anyone with a Craddock .224 Valkyrie.....would love to hear about your rifle.....pictures too please.
