Hodgon Longshot for 110g - 125g Blackout?

Post by Epoch »

Has anyone tried Hodgon Longshot for Blackout loads? It's been used a while to push pistol loads (9mm, 40S&W, 38super) to higher velocities at lower pressure than traditional pistol powders. Longshot was developed to shoot high velocity shotgun steel loads. Just wondering if anyone has tried it in 300 Blackout for supersonic 110g - 125g projectiles?
Thanks! :?:

QuickLOAD says no...it would be down to around 11.5 grains at only a 60% fill before the pressure was within limits, and only about 1800 fps...on the SMK 125gr. Much better powder selections out there.

With that quickload info, maybe it can be a quieter subsonic bolt gun option.

I have some subsonic Red Dot bolt gun loads to fire, as I am searching for a very quiet subsonic bolt gun load :)
