Talk to me about .300 blackout...

[Justin///M]

All depends. If you want to shoot quiet at close distances, subsonic. If you want to shoot longer distances, for accuracy or for game, supersonic. My general plinking load is a 147g FMJ bullet, supersonic, cheap and accurate.

Thank you! Yeah I'm looking to pick up some of each. Particularly..., subsonic home defense rounds, if they exist, and plinking rounds.

I've not yet scraped together enough coin to make the costly purchase of this Lehigh Defense sample pack, but I hope to soon.

$155 - These are just the components and not the loaded ammo.

.300 AAC Blackout / Whisper Bullet Sample Pack gets you:

The 300 Game Changer Package includes the following:
-50 of our 194gr Maximum Expansion Subsonic Bullets. We designed this bullet using our award winning Maximum Expansion Technology. This bullet offers the only expanding monolithic Subsonic Bullet in the world providing devastating silent performance.
-100 of our 115gr High Velocity Controlled Chaos Copper Bullets. We designed this bullet using our Controlled Chaos Technology. If you need to unleash the beast of the 300 AAC Blackout, then you need to put a few rounds of our 115gr CC bullets through the chamber.
-50 of our 78gr CQB Bullets. The CQ is a lightweight, hyper velocity design using an aluminum core and pre-stressed jacket. The aluminum core initiates the expansion slightly after contact, pressing back into the pre-stressed jacket and activating a violent, incapacitating energy transfer. Ideal for Hunting or Personal Defense.
-100 of our Lehigh Defense 300 AAC Blackout / Whisper brass cartridge cases.
-Load Data for all three bullets

Hornady just came out with a new subsonic .300blk round designed to expand at subsonic velocities.

Interesting. I like the looks of that. Doesn't look like Hornady has released the bullet yet for reloaders. If I see some of this ammo on the shelf somewhere I might buy some and see how it does.
