Ballistics 300 Black With Vortex Spitfire

I know that the Vortex Spitfire #X is built for 5.56 ballistics. I haven't tested my question below yet. Just wondering if anyone has. Has anyone tested the Spitfire's BDC when mounted on a 300 Black; 10.5 inch bbl? That is: 1. Pistol zero'd at 50 yards 2. Where might a 120 gr bullet impact when aim...

Re: 300 blackout pistol upper

Search the Bear Creek Arsenal web page. They have complete uppers for 5.56 and 300 Blackout in various lengths. I have a 10.5 inch bbl they manufacture in 1:7 twist. It's a tack driver with 120 gr, Barnes Vortex TAC-TX Black Tip for hunting. It's a devastating round. My shots are between 25-75 yards...

Re: New to Group and New to Reloading

You will find that H110 works best in the top part of the published load data so load your test ladder accordingly. For example, if max load is 18.0 grains, then I would load 17.2, 17.4, 17.6, 17.8, 18.0g as my ladder then go see how they performed. Some "DUH" questions if you don't mind ...

Re: New to Group and New to Reloading

I would recommend the hornady #10 reloading manual for decent 300blk loads. I would also recommend the Lyman 49-50 editions for simple loading process and explanations. Those will get you moving in the right direction. Thank you for your input. Since I will be using Hornady bullets, I will get the ...

Re: New to Group and New to Reloading

I do not plan to load to max but perhaps 1 or 2 grain(s) lower. My hunting is reserved for short ranges of 8-50 yards but 75 yards may be the exception. I like close. Thanks again.

There is nothing in hunting regs in Texas about suppressors for shots under 75 yards.
