I saw some old post's talking about the .300, anyone got some experience with it yet? (if I missed a thread talking about it, sorry)
I agree with TR. It's a cool round. I've got the 10" barrel. There are a lot of reloading and factory options from supersonic to subsonic. Southwest Ammo had subs in stock pretty recently. Barnes has made some specific bullets for it (expanding at certain velocities). You can also use 5.56 brass to make 300BLK, it just takes some effort. The thing I like the most is it only takes an upper change. Same BCG (bolt face), same magazines, etc…

I like it. Mine's a 16" barrel with a carbine gas system and required some initial tweaking. It now shoots 125s, 147s and 220s (all I've experimented with) just fine. I do need to get the right optics for it though. The current EoTech is OK but it doesn't maximize the potential.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
