Fixed my .224 Valkyrie Upper...
#1
...by installing a 16" Faxon 6.5 Grendel Barrel
[ATTACH=CONFIG]14341[/ATTACH]

Bedded the barrel to the upper and gas block (fun fact, this Faxon barrel does not have the set screw dimples I've become accustomed to. Not a huge problem). New York only allows unthreaded barrels so the thread protector is also installed with Permatex. That is not the method they proscribe but I challenge anyone to get that sucker off of there without heat.

Shot some ladders with 123 ELD's, here's what I found at the end of one

28.5 gr Varget gave me 2360 fps, 13.2 SD. The flier shot was partly me and partly a velocity outlier as well
