Momentum elite varmint in 224 Valkyrie


I’ve been wanting slmething smaller than my 308 and was considering a 224 Valkyrie as an alternative to .223. I think i just like the name and the idea of having something different from 223. How is 224 Valkyrie to own? Ammo expensive, and/or or tough to find? Is it worth getting instead of the ubiquitous 223?

The federal 75grn fmj's shoot well and were a fairly easy get and as cheap as 223/5.56 (14 bucks a box)when any ammo was a tough get.
I have 2 rifles chambered in 224 Valkyrie I have taken my AR out to 900yds with the 75's. But it's more consistent at about 750.
I expect to get past 1k once I can get the bolt gun dialed in. The Franchi proprietary magazine is very limited as far as coal but I plan on it being a single feed.
