Is there anything better then 300 blk for home defense?

This thing would be my go to now. 7" suppressed 12ga AR shotgun loaded with solid copper maker bullet slugs that expand to over 40mm

Impulse or fanboy buy perhaps? I got into 300BO for a small multitude of suppressed reasons. If you want to shoot supersonic 30 cal there are way better caliber options out there. I wouldn't hesitate to pick up a silenced SBR in a home defense situation but I'm pretty set on grabbing my 3 1/2" 12g with buck shot first.

I always thought maker subsonic expanding bullets would be a good hd round after digging a few out of deer that took instant dirt naps. This 500 grainer was launched out of a 458 socom at 1000fps.

Do you play the Isley Brothers or Teddy Pendergrass when somebody breaks in to your home? "Hey Alexa, play Bump N Grind. Call 911 in 5 minutes."

 

[bradsteen]

"Better" is subjective. Better in what way? Ammo capacity? Ability to stop the threat in one shot? Accuracy? Ability to stop within the walls of home and not overpenetrate? Define what specific problem you're trying to solve and you'll find it's a lot easier to solve it.

I think .300 blk in a suppressed platform is ideal for home defense. The suggestion of frangible ammo is a good one as that round will go through a lot of walls.

Any non-suppressed firearm fired indoors is loud enough to potentially rupture eardrums.

I love Clint's social media posts. Cheap advertising that brings droves of clients to his range courses.

On average shot spreads 1" per meter traveled…. So maybe a 3-5" hole depending on your house? 0000 buck is largely regarded as the best compromise between stopping power and minimizing penetration of residential walls.
