I decided to build a mk12 in .224 valkyrie, went with ballistic advantage for the test run before I commit to a custom barrel, the build came together nicely, just need scope rings mags and ammo, figured I would fall for all the hype and see what this round can do in one of my favorite AR's seems that quality ammo is cheaper than black hills 77 grain so figured I would give it a shot

Which barrel is that? I dont see any BA Valkyrie barrels with "This barrel features a longer .750” profile dimension necessary for proper installation of the OPS Inc 12th model collar and suppressor." disclaimer. Interested in your results, especially on the heavier grain side.

it's their 18" SPR it's not in their description but it's the proper profile no different than their 556 SPR Ops inc barrel
 
I'm looking forward to hearing your results, especially accuracy. I've got an upper chambered for the 22PDK (Prairie Dog Killer), 24" Krieger 1-7.7tw bbl by WOA that's always been a very good shooter. But have never tried 75-80gr bullets in it, as they would need to be single loaded with a SLED. Pic of the rifle w/Bushnell 6-24x50 G2CMR on a Weaver 20 MOA base, AeroPrecision M4E1 upper/12" key lock hg, on a RRA lower with A2 length Operator buttstock. 2nd pic is of a 6 HAGAR case left, 6.8 SPC center, 22 PDK right.
