This was a good deal but I probably will not ever see them. ( Do not show up the day or time scheduled, say nobody was at home when I am standing in the drive way when they go by, stop at wrong address, and the last time was on a Sunday afternoon and I stopped him in the middle of the road.)

Mine is being shipped with adult signature needed also, which makes things difficult to say the least. I didn't see that noted when I ordered or I'd have changed something or not ordered.

Still, a good price and it'll get sorted out in the end. I'll probably just tell them that Ill drive in and pick it up from the faciity.
They held it and I had to go 35 miles to the hub. Needed a reason to go to Cabelas! Got back home and ordered some 174 gr ammo from Lehigh for my buddy. Guess how it is being shipped... :shock: Oh well! Good ammo is worth the trouble. :P

Bought 400 rounds - first 10 I fired failed to feed every other round in my AR-15. They're too short to feed reliably. Sigh...

I got out yesterday and sent some downrange. At 50yds I was cutting groups of 1 to 1.25 inches. Gun is zeroed for the Barnes 110gr factory blacktip and I got same POI with these. I screwed the SDN-6 on and grouped the same size, just a few inches lower.

I was shooting out of a 16" Wilson medium weight barrel with 1:7 twist and carbine gas and Geissele SSA-E trigger. Sight is a 1-4 Millett Designated Marksman Scope.

No problems feeding like paberglund had thankfully.

Most shots were from a Lancer 20 rd mag with a few from mil-spec aluminum 20 rounders.

What AR have you got?

Wish I had some ideas to help. Best I can suggest is to try different brand mags and maybe a different lower to trouble shoot. I can't imagine it would be short stroking with supersonic loads.

Gen 3 P-Mags are notoriously bad for 300BLK.

When I saw this thread, I ordered 5 boxes, plus some 52 grain 5.56 bullets and the 190 grain .30 cal overruns. Good prices on all. I don't think I had heard of them until I saw this thread. I was not happy hearing that it was shipped FedEx with a signature required. But, it is scheduled to be here tomorrow (Saturday) and I have no plans to go anywhere, so maybe it will work out for me.

This will be the first factory ammo I have tried. I have no expectation of group performance. I am pleased that the brass alone from other merchants is almost the price of their loaded ammo.
