Hey guys and gals,

I am looking for some factory 300 blackout. I have found two sources of hornady 300 whisper that you can use in 300 blackout chambered guns but I want some real 300 blackout ammo. Anyone know where there might be some for sale.
 
@dealers...what are the prices? I have found some Remy 115g at a local gunshow...don't know how the guy got (and don't care) but I bought all he had. Not super cheap but makes shooting the 300BLK possible.
 
There are several folk over on the cast boolits forum running 150-168gr cast through their 300'. Food for thought

I am using 170gr cast in my bolt gun but the flat point doesn't feed for ####. It is cheap to shoot though.

To the OP, there is no advantage to "real" 300 BLK ammo save the head stamp. The Hornady 300 Whisper is the same cartridge just with the original name applied. Its all the same stuff. I'd just go with what you can get and can afford.

I have guns chambered in both 300-221 and the 300 BLK and I reload using original SSK 300 Whisper dies and everything works just fine.
 
I only wanted the real 300 blackout because I am having my tavor converted to 300 blackout and I want to hunt deer with it and vmax bullets and subsonics are not the best bullets for that. I bought some of the 125gr accutips from atr it was 35 a box
 
Just finished buying a case of Hornady 300 whisper 208gr Amax subsonics, a case of Hornady 300 whisper 110 gr vmax and a case of Remington 300 blackout 125gr accutip. Still looking for more variety if any dealer or individuals have any. Actually one other place had 115gr remington hollowpoint 300blackout might go for some of that to. Just have to find out what the price was on that stuff forgot to ask earlier.
 
Sounds like you might want to consider reloading. It's not that hard to convert .223/5.56mm brass over to 300BLK save for the intial cost of Dies & Brass etc.

Come on reloading equipment on top of 600 rounds of ammo? Don't think thats possible I didn't buy 3000 like I am sure some of you assume.
