Very impressive; I can only imagine the trauma this round can cause.

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
Im on the fence regarding a .300 BO build. The only thing making me stall is ammo availability. I dont want to invest in another platform that never catches on and ammo is never available for it.
I dont handload so I rely on factory production rates.
I bought into a .50 Beowulf platform and loved the round for its intended purpose but could never shoot it cause I cant get ammo for it on a regular basis.

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
50 Beowulf is not a SAAMI round. This round will always be available as even if the big companies don't make enough ammo, any number of smaller places can make it from Lake City 5.56mm brass. There will be about 25 loads for it coming out throughout the year.

We just got our case of 200rds of subsonic ammo, now we wait for the uppers

16 inch AAC uppers with KAC URX-III rails should ship in 1-2 weeks. They are already built but we are waiting for some documentation.

So what does that mean to the end user...the consumer like me?
I like the platform, I'm sold on the concept......I just need to know when ammo will be readily available. Will there ever be a time it's not on back order.....or when I can buy cases at a time?
I like that Remington is on board with production, but will it ever happen in meaningful quantities? I prefer to buy ammo by the case load.....preferably 2-3 cases at a time.

Make a small investment and start reloading for it. My Best freind has a Beuwolf and I have a Grendel and We both reload for them. A Lee Aniversary reloading kit can be had from Cabela's for about $75.

What is the difference between the 300aac and the 300 whisper? It looks the same to me.

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
300 AAC BLACKOUT is a SAAMI standard. It also has a longer throat, like 6.8 SPC-II does compared to 6.8, or 5.56mm does compared to 223. Remington makes factory ammo and about 40 companies are making products for it.
Here is the AAC 16 inch upper:

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
I see calibration bb tracks on the far side of each Jello (TM) block, and a measurement grid on the bottom of the frame.
Anyone know whether those are 2-inch blocks and spaces along the bottom? Or 2 cm or 3 cm???
Velocities of those 125- and 110-gr bullets? Full capture of the 110 was pretty impressive.

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
Gel was 10 inches wide and 20%. I don't know the velocity yet.
I did figure out that 300 AAC BLACKOUT at 210 yards has the same muzzle velocity as an M1 Carbine at the muzzle (110 grain bullets).

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
How about a video with the 220gr subsonics. Will it zip right through the jello?

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
with the cult-like following of the 300 Whisper, it was just a matter of time til the round went public--I believe the 300BO
is a useful platform and plan on an upper some time this year
---after I finish the Grendels and 204 platforms

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
So, If only the throat is different, will it and a whisper ammo inner-change?

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
300 AAC BLACKOUT is hotter. If you shoot it in a 300 Whisper(R) chamber, it will go over 55,000 psi. It would be like shooting 6.8 SPC-II ammo in a 6.8 chamber, or 5.56mm ammo in a 223 chamber.

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
Still curious, other than being standardized by a major ammo company what is the benefit over the whisper? How much more mv will it have with a 125 grain bullet? I have had a whisper in a ar,and a contender. What am I missing?

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
I don't know how much more, but 300 AAC BLACKOUT can do 2450 fps with a 110 grain bullet at 55,000 psi in a 16 inch barrel.
You can pretty much do everything with the guns you already have, but this will get more people into it.

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
Is h110 the go to powder for this? I used that in my whispers until I found that 4227 out performed it and was not sensitive to temps.

Re: 300 AAC BLACKOUT high speed video
H110 works well, but I am being told that N110 is producing some of the best results for supersonic..

I think H110 is the top choice. 4227 is too bulky and you cannot fit enough in the case to get to max pressure.
