Nate from United States, MN Public Profile

Great round in my Airborne Arms barrel. However these used to be nickel plate as the description says. Then Sierra stopped producing them apparently for a couple of years in the .224 Valkyrie. I contacted them and got no response about their availability. Also Sierra does not sell the 69gr blitz king bullets for reloading. So I was glad to see them back in production but not with plain brass. I run these in an ar with a suppressor and so it runs very dirty. The nickel plating helped the rounds in the magazine from corroding from being covered in spent powder, especially the round that last chambered and then I eject after hunting. Disappointed with Sierra on what they’ve done with a great round and Optics Planet needs to change the description. Not OP fault though, Sierra used the same part number with slightly different graphics on the box.
