Will you be making a 1:6.5 twist 224 Valkyrie barrel?

The one we checked has an out-of-spec throat, as do most of the barrels out there.
To get the long throat to shoot, load the Berger 77gr Hybrids to mag length.

Thanks,
Lee

Saw this on the new 224V forum last week:

It seems there is a bunch of bad reamers going around. If you can load a 90gr SMK to 2.3 without jamming the bullet into the lands the reamer used to cut the chamber was out of spec.  The SAAMI spec for freebore is 1.676 from the base of the cartridge.
Turn a flat based .224 bullet around and seat it upside down in a 224 valkyrie case. Seat it so it barely touches the lands. Measure from the base to the forward most part of the .224 diameter of the bullet. It should be very close to 1.676"
