Re: 300 blkout 1/5 barrel twist

I received some Maker 350 gr for the 8.6 yesterday. Will use those for hunting. I saw a pic of one expand in gel, amazing. I have some 160gr copper for Supersonic and 285gr for subsonic, but both are expensive for plinking

Re: 300 blkout 1/5 barrel twist

I've on the Discord 8.6blkout forum. They've been saying the same about the 8.6 but most of them use suppressors. And warn some bullets will destroy the can. I don't have one so I can experiment close range on paper to see if they hold together. Most of them don't shoot Supers.

Re: 300 blkout 1/5 barrel twist

I have heard the twist rate is hard on bullets not solid(copper) ? The 8.6blkout has the same issue. Do you load yourself? I have since I first bought the 300 blkout.

Re: Powder-loads for 150gr subs

These are just for plinking. Bullets were cheap .20

Re: 300BO 10.5 blow up today

Thanks for the info. Casings are still stuck in chambers, unable to remove them. Let one sit in liquid wrench (submerged) for two days. Nothing to grab to knock out.

Re: Powder-loads for 150gr subs

My mistake, he was using 1680. Sorry! No, powder doesn't matter as long as safe to use!
