Why the obsession with Jacketed Bullets that expand at subsonic velocities ?
I mean with powder coating or the Hi-Tek coatings lead doesn't leave the bullet so you could cast a 220 or 230 gr lead bullet then coat it and it would expand and not gum up a suppressor and lead will expand no ? Now I'm not saying them ain't some real good looking bullets I'm just missing the why I recon |

I find it boring View Quote You probably don't NFA bro. I thought it was a fad caliber back when I thought cans and SBRs were overrated. My next build is a 9 or 10 inch .300 Blackout upper. (Hopefully put a 3rd form 1 in sometime in the future for a dedicated lower.) I already put a Dead Air Armament Sandman L in jail just for it. |

I've always been in love with rifles that shoot pistol rounds
The 300 blk is the ultimate pistol round shooting rifle I think the subsonic version is awesome the supersonic version is meh, not enough velocity if they could magically come up with a way to get the 300 blk supersonic version to around 2500 fps, that would turn it into a truly ideal cartridge I hate the 300 blk fan boys, what a bunch of idiots. Fan boys are always annoying as fuck, but 300 blk fan boys are a real bunch of slobbery fan-tards. they pretend that the subsonic round is quiet as a dial tone and the supersonic round is a bad-ass sniper round stupid so that's my assessment of the round: suppressed = truly awesome supersonic = lame, just shoot 223 instead fanboys = pathetic as usual |

Just think there are much better options out there. If you want to go supersonic, 6.8, Grendel, and wolverine are better. If you want to shoot subs there are better options in PCCs with cheaper plinking and HP (that is actually designed to perform at sub velocities) ammo off the shelf. Smaller sbr packages in the PCCs too. |

Smaller sbr packages in the PCCs too. Sure, but now we're on to proprietary bolts and mags. I like how .300 BLK can take the mags I already have, and I don't have to hunt down a proprietary bolt. Plus I can make .300 cases out of the surplus of .223 / 5.56 cases I have laying around in bags. |

I've always wanted to pay $1 a round for boutique 7.62x39. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile And I've always wanted to be able to put .30 cal rounds that use off the shelf components and trimmed 5.56 brass without having to change out anything but the bolt, and also be able to run them in an SBR without obnoxious muzzle blast and gas system problems. A lot of guys are missing the point that you can shoot suppressed or unsuppressed, supersonic or subsonic, and the rifle just works. The supersonic ballistics aren't spectacularly powerful, but they're certainly reasonable. But if you can't find .300BLK for way, way under $1 per round, then you might have trouble remembering not to shoot it out of your 5.56 rifles. Just sayin' Quoted:
