Magazines for the 6.8/224Valkyrie. Which to choose? - Huckleberry75 - 08-13-2018
I have a buddy that just picked up a .224Val, and does not like the 25rd mag that came with it. He is looking for a couple 10rd mags and wanted to know who to look at and who to avoid. Thought I would pose the query to the Horde.
What say ye?
Thx in advance.

These were on sale for $9 last year so I bought about 10 of them since people reported they worked well for 6.5Grendel also.
I have used them for several SPC wildcats (6x6.8, Six5 and American 30) and Grendel and I had no problems with either. I bought the 25 round mags.
I think they are really ASC mags outsourced by Midway.

PRI makes the most reliable 6.8 mags. That’s what everyone around here is using in the Valkyrie

Either PRI or ASC. 6.5 Grendel or 6.8 SPC marked magazines function the same.
Myself I use ASC. Lighter weight than the PRI’s and allow the same overall lenght for hand loads. Also stainless so no corrosion worries.
