Pet Loads/Bullets for the 300 Blackout
« on: January 09, 2014, 11:18:54 AM »
I am about to start working up some loads for a 300 Blackout.

The barrel is a 1:7 twist and is 16 inches long.

I am thinking I want a sub-sonic load and a supersonic load.  The tighter twist should allow for a heavier bullet.

I'm interested to see what loads folks have had luck with.

Powder choices, AA1680 for sub sonic, H-110 or WW296 for super sonic.
Bullet choices, 208 A Max for subs. 110 V Max, 110 Varmageddon, 125 BT, 125 MK, 145 tracer, for supers. Most any 30 cal bullet will function in my 300 BLK.
I have a 16" CMMG barrel with carbine gas. I mostly run with a Gemtech HVT suppressor.
I use Wolf small rifle primers and reformed mil 5.56 brass.
Of my several AR -15's it is one of the most fun to shoot.
