Re: 300aac blackout 9inch barrel vs 16 inch barrel

I had a 16 inch barrel and currently own a 10 inch barrel AR. Around 250 fps difference with my loads of 110 v-max. There is also about a 200 foot pounds of energy lost. Which can be significant. https://youtu.be/4VNl7QXykUY 1037 for 16 inch vs 938 of energy with my 10 inch @100 yards according to ...

Re: 300aac blackout 9inch barrel vs 16 inch barrel

I figured that would be the case but the energy gains from 10 to 16 is around 200 with the various loads.

Re: Ultimate 300BLK bug out ammo

I Am just know taking a serious look at the 300. I really so I would be casting my bullets. Funny with 125 grain bullets wouldn't the load put weight be rivilling that of the ak? If then wouldn't that negate some of the benifit of the 300? I need to see what the 110 grain bullets will do. Heck what ...
