Super User Hi Salenity Posted July 31, 2014 Super User Posted July 31, 2014 I'm building a new AR and I am chambering it in 300 Blackout, is anyone familiar with this caliber and have any advise on load data? Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted August 4, 2014 Author Super User Posted August 4, 2014 I finally got all the pieces to start my build this morning. This was not a kit I purchased everything individually so I could get what I wanted What do you know it at least looks like I remember what I'm doing. Lol. It next to the plainest M4 I could find 3 Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted August 4, 2014 Author Super User Posted August 4, 2014 I've found quite a bit of load data for it, it's a neat round if you load it with a 110-125gr bullet it will zip right along at over 2000fps You can also load a 200-220gr bullet and pistol powder and get it at around -1000sps! That ladies and gentlemen is subsonic!!! I'm checking into getting a suppressor for it! Quote
tip2oo3 Posted August 4, 2014 Posted August 4, 2014 Just my little research h1000 works good for the supers, I load my 308 subs with trail boss. Quote
tip2oo3 Posted August 4, 2014 Posted August 4, 2014 A good tip for loading subs- start high and work your way down to get your desired fps Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted August 4, 2014 Author Super User Posted August 4, 2014 Just my little research h1000 works good for the supers, I load my 308 subs with trail boss. Do you have a suppresser? If so what one? I checked a local class 3 dealer and he had one in stock but it was $975! OUCH!!! I was thinking about 6-700 for a YHM? Quote
tip2oo3 Posted August 4, 2014 Posted August 4, 2014 Yea I have a thunderbeast 30p-1, more for precision shooting than ar blasting. Nothing wrong with the yhm's that I've held, they're just a little heavy Quote
nick76 Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 How long did it take you to assemble? Never done one, but am considering doing one for the "fun" of it. Quote
ThatZX14Fella Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 How long did it take you to assemble? Never done one, but am considering doing one for the "fun" of it. Assembly time goes off of how much money you plan to spend at a time. Quote
nick76 Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Assembly time goes off of how much money you plan to spend at a time. I completely understand when you are buying one component at a time, but if you bought everything and had it all to assemble was what I was asking. Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted August 12, 2014 Author Super User Posted August 12, 2014 It probably took me 2 hours. I've built several before but I haven't built one in several years. Do a search on YouTube for some videos... Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted August 12, 2014 Author Super User Posted August 12, 2014 I took the flash hider off and put a fake suppressor on it. Still waiting on optics :-/ Quote
tip2oo3 Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I could assemble an ar in an hour or two but the key is to have the right tools on hand, that's always been the trickiest part for me. Quote
tip2oo3 Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 What kind of optic you planning on? Red dot or variable? Quote
crazyjoeclemens Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 Nice build. I think my next one is gonna be in .300 BLK, too. Always wanted one since they first came out. Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted August 22, 2014 Author Super User Posted August 22, 2014 I actually sold the barrel and handguards already and should have my new stuff tomorrow 1 Quote
