Hornady A224 Lock-N-Load Modified Case 224 Valkyrie Brass

The Hornady A224 Lock-N-Load Modified Case transforms precision reloading for 224 Valkyrie cartridges by providing exact chamber measurements for optimal bullet seating depth. This modified case integrates seamlessly with Hornady's Lock-N-Load Overall Length Gauge system, eliminating guesswork in cartridge overall length determination. Reloaders achieve consistent ammunition performance through precise measurement capabilities that standard brass cannot provide.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard fired brass, this modified case features precision-machined threads that accept the Lock-N-Load system's measuring tools directly. The case maintains exact chamber dimensions while providing a secure connection point for the measuring rod. Standard measurement methods often introduce variables through inconsistent case expansion, while this modified case delivers repeatable measurements within 0.001 inches. The threaded design eliminates the need for case preparation steps that can introduce measurement errors.

Key Features

• Precision-threaded for Lock-N-Load Overall Length Gauge compatibility
• Maintains exact 224 Valkyrie chamber specifications
• Eliminates measurement variables from fired case expansion
• Constructed from quality brass for durability and accuracy
• Allows precise bullet seating depth determination
• Compatible with all 224 Valkyrie chamber configurations
• Reduces ammunition development time significantly

Precision rifle competitors rely on exact cartridge overall length measurements to achieve consistent accuracy across match conditions. The modified case system enables reloaders to determine optimal bullet jump distances for specific rifle chambers, resulting in improved accuracy potential. Hunters developing loads for long-range applications benefit from the repeatable measurements that ensure consistent ballistic performance. The system proves particularly valuable when working with temperature-sensitive powders where precise case capacity becomes critical.
