So, I’m working on a 224 Valkyrie build on a lower I bought a couple years ago.
The lower just needs a Magpul PRS stock and it will be complete. Some upgraded components, but not super-premium. I’d just about settled on getting a 24” White Oak Armaments upper. But PSA has a special on a 20” upper plus 200 rounds of ammo that would save me enough for a Vortex Diamondback scope. While I have visions of a 1,000-yard rifle, my local range is only 200 yards, and that’s really probably as far as I’ll ever shoot. Do I build the 24” rifle I planned, or do I settle for 20” and save enough for the scope? For my my situation, will the extra 4" on the barrel make enough (or any) difference?
