    Last spring all the gun makers had AR related stuff on sale at crazy prices. I bought an AR kit to assemble for $100. I also bought a 224 Valkyrie assembled upper for around $150. This past winter I was digging around looking for a hunting jacket and found the Valkyrie upper.

    I was curious about it, but made up my mind from the start that I was not going to reload for it. I remembered I had a Black Friday deal scope, so I mounted it, bought ammo and shot it. I was surprised at the low recoil. I was also surprised at the accuracy.

    The more I thought about it the more I thought I should shoot it long range. So I bought a better scope. Last weekend I bought a Covenant 7 Cabelas scope. Great clear glass, and fairly high magnification. Only cost around $350.

    I’m now thinking this may be my antelope gun. I got a scope that should accommodate 300-400 yd shots. Now to get it mounted and do some ammo testing.

    Took some pics.

    EDIT - Orbitup, those are not stickers.

    I was always intrigued with the C96 Broomhandle stock configuration and other like minded ideas. Thought this modern take would be interesting. Planning to use with a SBA3. $35 for the adapter... you just add the plate, castle nut, and brace assembly. Maybe Form 1 in the future. Worth a try, I think.

    Finally found some Fiocchi 125gr 300 Blk Out with the Hornady SST bullet at PSA. Bought a hundred rounds despite the higher price. Still have $1100 stimulus money to spend.
