FEDERAL 224 VLK - 90 GR - BT - 20 RDS/BOX
Federal Fusion MSR in 224 Valkyrie delivers purpose-built performance for modern sporting rifles, combining a molecularly fused soft point bullet with MSR-optimized components for devastating terminal results on medium game and varmints alike.
- 224 Valkyrie cartridge optimized for AR-platform modern sporting rifles
- 90-grain bonded soft point bullet for deep penetration and controlled expansion
- Fusion bonding process locks core to jacket, preventing separation on impact
- Optimized propellant charge delivers reliable cycling through short MSR barrels
- Skived, pre-programmed tip initiates consistent expansion at hunting distances
- 20 rounds per box — ideal for range testing or a focused hunting session
Who This Is For
This ammunition is the go-to choice for hunters running an AR-15 or similar MSR chambered in 224 Valkyrie who demand reliable feeding, consistent cycling, and lethal terminal performance on deer, hogs, and coyotes out to extended ranges. It's equally well-suited for shooters who want a premium bonded hunting load they can trust from a name synonymous with quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Federal Fusion MSR 224 Valkyrie suitable for deer hunting?
Yes. The 90-grain Fusion bonded soft point is designed specifically for ethical harvests on medium-sized game including whitetail deer. The bonding process keeps the core and jacket together through impact, driving deep penetration and reliable expansion even at longer ranges typical of the flat-shooting 224 Valkyrie cartridge.
Will this ammunition cycle reliably in my AR-15 chambered in 224 Valkyrie?
Federal engineered the Fusion MSR line with semi-automatic function in mind. The propellant charge and overall cartridge specifications are tuned to generate consistent gas pressure for reliable feeding and ejection through standard MSR gas systems, including rifles with shorter 18–20 inch barrels common in 224 Valkyrie builds.
How does the 90-grain Fusion compare to lighter 224 Valkyrie loads for long-range accuracy?
The 90-grain bullet offers a significantly higher ballistic coefficient than lighter projectiles in the same caliber, meaning it resists wind drift better and retains more velocity and energy at distance. For hunters and shooters engaging targets beyond 300 yards, the 90-grain Fusion MSR load strikes an excellent balance between flat trajectory, manageable recoil, and terminal performance.
