you guys have misunderstood my posts to this thread
I don't care if fat mcnasty sells bullets, why would I? I hope he sells lots of bullets, I'm happy about it. Good for him. live long and prosper the reason you think I hate the 300 is because I don't praise it to an absurd degree when I evaluate the 300 blk, I do the same evaluation I would do for a round like 300 magnum or 243 Winchester that makes you think I'm a "hater" I like the idea of putting a big heavy subsonic bullet in a 223 case I'm surprised it took so long to appear on the market for what it is, it's great but the power level of ANY subsonic round is the same as a warmed-up pistol round, it's not even a magnum pistol power level. that's just a matter of physics where the cartridge fails is the supersonic version. it is pretty lame, it's hardly worth bothering with. The ballistics are grossly inferior to the excellent 223 rounds available any time anybody discusses the actual physical characteristics of the 300 blk, all the fanboys act like you're kicking over a little kid's puppet show out of spite |

Don't you have some dirty license plates to report, Cyborg? I don't report them those bad apples know who they are here's the big problem that I have: everyone was talking and talking about their 300 blackout, how magical it is so I looked up the actual stats for the round and I saw that it was not magical it doesn't suppress "quiet as a typewriter", it suppresses "quiet as a loud chainsaw" it doesn't penetrate to the core of the earth after circling the globe 5 times, it's ballistically equal to a 45 acp round or it can be hot-rodded to a really sucky version of a 30-30 now everyone is shaking with rage and pain How dare you interject facts and data into a Fat_McNasty GD shill thread. He's trying to sell bullets! Disputing things no one here actually said is interjecting facts now? There's a disconnect between reality and perception with this cartridge.

The biggest advantage to the 300BLK is that you can fired supers and subs with a simple magazine change or even staggered in the magazine for fun. |

I was very excited to get a 300 blk until I realized that the excellent ballistic coefficient wouldn't help anything at subsonic velocity you might as well just shoot a hot loaded 45 acp The whole conversation can be reduced to the following: The limiting factor on shooting with a suppressor is the need to keep the ammo velocity subsonic if the ammo is supersonic, it adds a good 20 db of bullet crackling sound to the shot, which defeats the point of shooting with a suppressor subsonic ammunition is limited to the speed of sound (obviously), which is somewhere around 1000 feet per second 1000 fps velocity is what you would call +P level pistol ammo velocity no matter what shape the bullet is, or no matter how heavy it is, you're still limited to a medium to heavy pistol round it's not even a magnum pistol round. a 300 blackout or 308 whiteout or 287 greenout is all the same, it's about as powerful as a nice +P 45 acp round a subsonic 300 blackout is no more magical than a 45 acp round, they are more or less ballistically equivalent a supersonic 300 blackout round is underpowered, it's inferior to the excellent 223 hunting rounds available if you wanted a suppressed hunting rifle, a better choice would be a 308 bolt gun then you could load 240 grain bullets down to 1000 fps for suppressed use and still be able to reach out 600 yards with the full power 168 grain loads View Quote This is all very important to understand. If anyone wants to do anyone of these, the 300 blackout is not the perfect round. The 300 BO's strength is doing so much. It is a speciality round that is a generalist. It is a 45 ACP and 7.62x39 in one gun. Like many here, I have a few 9mm ARs, several 5.56 ARs, and even a suppressed 308 bolt gun. I think a 14.5" 5.56 and the 20" 5.56 are great fighting guns. I have some of each. If we have a full on war in America, those are good go to guns. 45 ACP ARs and other short semi auto carbines are hard to find and high capacity non AR 45 mags are not plentiful nor cheap. A short 300 BO is better than a 45 ACP ... right now, for the time being. The availability of good 45 guns and mags are few and far between. 7.62x39 is a lot cheaper. But, unless you are an AK fan, it isn't always so great in ARs. The 9mm can't come close to the power a supersonic 300 BO can generate. In a house or around the house in the city, it is a toss up between the subsonic 9mm and 300 BO subsonic . It is easy to beat the 300 BO in cost for ammo. While the 300 BO is not perfect, it does so much... good enough. All in all, I my view, it is the best general purpose combination of round and gun in a short AR. |

.300 BLK is basically an MP5SD and a Krinkov in the same package; but with AR modularity and ergos - and you can switch between the two with nothing more than a mag change. That's the glory of it. View Quote That is the way I see it. As a lightweight here with only about a dozen ARs and 4 suppressors, along with 3 dozen other guns, (again, a lightweight for AR15.com), I have made room for a suppressed 8.5" 300 BO AR. I see it as symbol of true diversity. |

How about more bullet selection for the 300 BO? How about super 150's or sub 150's in a 300 BO lever gun? People enjoy super quiet 300 BO bolt guns. I would imagine a suppressed 300 BO lever gun would be more fun. The 30-30 is fine. But, people still buy 45 colt, 44 mag, and 357 mag lever guns. I would imagine they would buy 300 BO lever guns. How about not having to stock 30-30 ammo? I bet a 125 gr lever gun bullet in a 300 BO would smoke a 7.62x39 round for deer. Ever notice the trend of people SBRing and/or suppressing 357 lever guns? An SBRed and suppressed 300 BO lever gun might be a whole lot of fun. |

THE biggest down side I see to the 300 BO from a practical standpoint is a good optic. The ideal optic would switch between a zeroed subsonic reticle and a separate zeroed supersonic reticle. I know of no such optic, including the Leupold |

It can push a 90 grain bullet to 2600 fps using 1680 or 1200R without too much difficulty. Which is a compromise from what the 6.8 SPC II can do but without special bolt & mags. One of the design goals for the .277 WLV was to have a 300 meter hunting round. So, just switch out the upper and ammo then I'm there. The 300 meter limit is OK since it is the max I seen varmints & deer anymore anyway. and here's my reference for the .277 Wolverine loads any time anybody discusses the actual physical characteristics of the 300 blk, all the fanboys act like you're kicking over a little kid's puppet show out of spite I'm not upset, just stating for me ; it is a compromise that I've accepted. IMHO, a suppressed .300BLK in a pseudo SBR is better at HD/SD than a pistol plus doesn't make the ring&little fingers on both hands go numb for a week or so like a 12GA with 00 buck does. It is my preference to have thirty .300BLK rounds ready to go vs. a pistol. Again, I don't know your requirements or setup which is implied to be quite nice, and would be interested in reading your suggestions for me instead of a .300 BLK for HD in another thread since I don't want to side track Fat_McNasty's welcome back thread. Fair enough? I think you should use a cartridge that's "typewriter quiet", meaning something around 70db that's 10 db quieter than a dial tone according to the threads i read right here on arfcom, that would be the 300 blk |

I cant sell. 06 was turned in and ITAR closed down.. Last year. There is NO way possible to make the quantity to sell on the corbin hydro press and make a profit.. I would need a 6-9 station transfer press and the wife would get hella mad if i got that and put it in the garage. This is more of a na na na see what i can do and you cant thread.. I had hopes, man. I'm glad to hear you are feeling better! Welcome to the land of the free. fascist. ITAR is a fucking millstone around the necks of small business (and plenty of medium/large businesses, too) You can't even make cast lead projectiles for resale without being an ITAR registered manufacturer. |

While the 30-30 can't replace the 300 BO in an AR SBR , the 300 BO would be a great lever gun cartridge to replace the 30-30. on paper, it doesn't seem that great - 170 grain flat point bullet at 1900 fps but the rifle is very very light and very handy, it's a very sleek and nice-pointing little gun the reason the 30-30 is still around is because it's a perfect match for the little rifle, it kills deer dead and it doesn't jam that skinny little buttstock into your shoulder too hard over the years, they've tried to use hard-kicking rounds in those lever guns like the 307 Winchester, but it didn't catch on because nobody wants a big heavy lever gun that kicks hard on the flip side of the coin, nobody wants a downloaded 30-30 in the form of a 300 blk what possible good would come from swapping a 30-30 out of a marlin and using a 300 blk instead come on How about more bullet selection for the 300 BO?

So yeah, a subsonic round that can defeat bulletproof glass does have appeal. 300BLK subsonic bulletproof glass testing Here's the exact same round (from the same box) vs a brand new piece of "bulletproof" glass, this time I knew the rating and age. It was Level IIIA (that means rated for 9mm and 44mag for those that don't know). Most people who watch that video without watching the first one don't understand why I did it, or why I was surprised it didn't go through. The first one I did just to see if the sectional density could allow such a low energy round to go through some scrap material I had laying in my shed. When it did, I figured I should repeat the test with a sample I knew more about. That way I could say it went through a Level IIIA piece of glass, not "some old plastic that came out of a gas station". Problem is, it didn't go through the glass with the actual rating. Oh well. It's not that the SD of subsonic 300blk isn't interesting, it's that I find no good application for it that I would trade a 5.56 or 6.8 SPC for. |
