Love 300blk. Supers are easy to gas up to 2100+ FPS, subs are fun and still hit hard. Best short (7.5"-10.5") AR option. Also, hella fun out of a 16" Ruger American!

It was offered in all flavors. Obama said no.
You can always just buy the brass or buy cheap ammo (NOT aguila!) and save the brass.I studied up on .300 Blackout. I liked it for a lot of reasons. It seemed that it rivaled the .30 Carbine in it's handiness. As a reloader I completely lost interest when it came to cutting .223 cases. So I think less is better for me . I use the .556 and .308. Stocking up on those keeps me busy.
That's the best way! generate your own empty brass. Then its fireformed to your chamberYou can always just buy the brass or buy cheap ammo (NOT aguila!) and save the brass.

I know that gun you are talking about.I shot a friend's AR in .300 Blackout and found it to be accurate at 60 yards* and easy to control with "rapid fire".
*Accurate as in I was making hits , lots of them , on a chest sized target at 60 yards with a un-zeroed to me , red dot scope.
Sounds like you have a good combo going on...

Built one a few years ago and I love it .And my revelation is...
.300 Blackout is a hoot.
Just shot my 10.5" barrel AR in .300 AAC for the first time and it was a ton of fun.
It was very accurate at least to the 25 yards at the SafeFire indoor range.
I enjoy subsonic ammo over supersonic but recoil on either was very manageable for follow up shots.
Now I am even more anxious for my suppressor to arrive.
I saw it. Not worth the trouble for me.Theres a jig for harbor freight cut off saws. Its extremely simple and effective. I cut up my 223 cases that have split necks and the ones I simply dont want to trim down. I can do nearly 200 an hour. Chamfer, debur, lube and run em through a 300blk die and you're set.
Move south, you might find some then. The heat ain't so bad.I know that gun you are talking about.
Lol it has 16 inch barrel.
And I love it .
It's a hog killer .
Only if we had hogs around here.
I have heard that it was meant for a short barrel.Imo, a 300blk pistol is better then a 5.56 pistol which is what it was built for.
2 foot fireballs are great at the range but not as great for practical purposes.
When I build a pistol it will be a 300blk.

The price of the ammo is a downer.
But it's getting better.
There isn't enough interest in steel .300 blk for them to do so. They barely got lucky with steel 5.56, and even then that interest died down when people kept having issues with how dirty steel ammo is, which clogged up AR chambers quicker than brass.Aww come on.
Everything is overpriced compared to 7.62x39
If we could get the Commies to grind out 300 AAC at billions of rounds per year for over 50 years It would be dirt cheap too.
It would also be dirty as hell to shoot with mediocre accuracy
Nonetheless, 7.62x39 is great for blasting away an afternoon. Ammo is like Baskin Robbins. There's a flavor for everyone
