    Sorry GOST I'm slow. I've started this thread to share a new cartridge that will soon be available to reloaders and to show off my latest build. I have recently gotten involved with this project as a tester of this round and will be giving full reports on performance as we go along. My barrel was ordered today and is expected end of June, in the meantime here is a little propaganda put together by the developer to fill you guys in. There is one barrel being tested now, 26'' on a Savage action. More to come.

    Certainly has a good start on the brass. Lapua brass is the best on the market IMO.

    Here is a size comparison so you can get a better idea of what we're working with here. Notice the size next to the Grendel, and the Grendel aint no chump.

    Not yet UW, I've got a lot of the parts I will be using mocked up and will post some pics but still waiting on some things. I've decided to use the CMT ambi and upper on this one. I want to use the 15'' Houlding Precision carbon handguard on it but they're still out of stock due to moving, might actually go with a Lancer on it, still undecided. There is also a custom Savage the first one has been built on that is just plain sexy I'll try to get a pic of.

    This is the first and only as of yet 7mm Valkerie. Built by Bruce Finnegan, the developer of the 7VAR and the .257 Bobcat. This one is a 26'' barrel on a Savage action, all data that will be posted to begin with will be from this rifle until further notice. His photo not mine.

    Here is good example of what is being seen out of the Savage 26'' barrel. These are true numbers from rounds loaded by Bruce ranging from 100gr to the whopping 168gr Berger. I was impressed and it's still early.
