Re: The 300 BLK just may drve me to the nut house

On my T-20 Garand build I’ve given up on 300 blkout case and had it rechambered by Accuracy Systems to 300Hamr which is giving me more case for more powder= more gas= it runs. It’s apart right now being camo painted.

Re: Mini 300blkout/Garand build

Got my rifle rechambered to 300Hamr and have it running finally. The extra room in the case made the difference. Also had to make the mag well smaller as the extra play in the magazine during recoil was causing the bolt to override the next round. Should have caught that oops sooner. Hoping to paint...

Re: Mini 300blkout/Garand build

It’s been too many months since my last post. Sorry to be so long. Haven’t given up on it but have been working on other builds. CFEBLK eventually didn’t work out. I did however work up blkout loads using LilGun powder that worked with the weak recoil spring setup on the rifle. But in order to get m...

Re: Mini 300blkout/Garand build

The CFEBLK seems to work with the 150s but I've had to experiment some to get reliable function with 125-130 gr. I tried some LilGun powder that I had and it’s working. Everything that I’m shooting with these powders eject fine but have issues with picking up the next rd. Remember, my gas port is 23...

Re: Mini 300blkout/Garand build

After a lot of work looking for anything that was rubbing, in a bind or not right I’ve gotten it to feed and eject 150 gr jacketed bullets. The case is just about full of CFEBLK and is certainly being compressed but I’m not getting high pressure signs. I would like it to also shoot 125/130gr bullets...

Re: Mini 300blkout/Garand build

Had a setback. It was running before I installed the ruger reinforcement and moved the bbl action back 1/4 inch. I had to install the steel because it was battering the oak inserts that I was using. Had to set the sction back to get the gas cylinder, handguard and stock to work right. But I’ve moved...

Re: Mini 300blkout/Garand build

Got my stock filled in on both sides where the mini14 recvr is shorter than the garands. Also installed the ruger steel stock reenforcement with jbweld and the 2 side screws as I had some movement playing with the heavier bullets. Had to remove the damaged oak shims that I had initially installed. A...

Re: Mini 300blkout/Garand build

More good news, 20.0 gr with 150 gr bullets will eject and feed. Might have to bump the CFEBLK up a hair. But while grouping it is shooting low at 35 yds. I milled some off the garand front sight but am also going to play with the ruger rear sight as I’ve run out of elevation. I need to fab up a tal...

Re: Mini 300blkout/Garand build

Had a breakthrough today using 21.0 gr of CFEBLK and 110 gr rn, 123 gr zmax, 125 gr midway plastic tipped and 130 gr hp bullets. All ejected and stripped the next rd. Couldn’t get H110 to work no matter what I did. More testing needed but at least my build’s running with my handloads. I had to swap ...
