I don't even own a led melter and I have the NOE 311247 Mold and over 200 lbs of lead ingots... I think I'm putting the cart before the horse....LOL I guess I'll have to rely on the hospitality of strangers... or at least local fellow casters.. I figured the mold and the lead would be ample to enco...

You will be making a new forum?
Will it be using the http://www.300AACBLACKOUT.com domain?

I have those same dies. I had to take a couple thousandths off the bottom of the sizing die to get the shoulder bumped back far enough. You'll need the Lee Handles. http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/default.aspx?productNumber=117892 For subsonic loads, I'm starting with THIS: http://www.midwayus...

Your point is certainly valid, but one of the big parts of getting "mainstream" acceptance is to have people not immediately associate it with suppressors. Having the official 300 BLK Forum location on a website titled "Silencer Talk" is going to have a tendency to pigeon hole th...

Thank you very much for all of the info! That is a huge start on the info I was looking for. I already have a Forster 300 BLK die set. (Was on a waiting list for the first run...) Was starting to build a 300 Fireball upper when the 300 BLK was released so I had a bit of a head start. Looks like I wi...

I run a Noveske 10" with a TBAC 30P-1 suppressor. The subsonic 220 SMK is currently the primary load for this rifle. I use 300 yards as a maximum effective range. The main determining factor in this is that I run out of elevation and have to hold 4 MILS to get there. A subsonic 220 SMK is so ef...

Just built my 300 aac blk and relied heavily on this forum for info prior to that decision. I fell hard for 6.8 and built two upper for it. Still have one, a bison, which is a great upper. My wilson combat was too but was sacrificed for a 300 AAC BLK upper I put together. Here's the huge draw for m...

So what is the best lube for this application then?

You guys just got me to order an NOE mould and I don't even own any casting equipment yet.
A buddy at work is going to let me use his stuff till I get my own.
I have alot of reading to do...

I posted this in another thread, but incase you SCAR guys needed some intel... As for the SCAR, I know that there are some smiths making their own 300 BLK version, but if you are waiting for FN, you will be waiting awhile. I shot a match last week with one of the FN Military Reps and he explained th...

I voted three years because the time that it takes for items to be developed, become available, in use, reviews published, and word of mouth. I am very suppressed at how many industry type guys that have never heard of the 300 BLK or if they have, know nothing about it. As for the SCAR, I know that ...

Just out of pure curiosity, When you are loading up these cast "Boolits", you lubrisize the bullet, expand the case neck to start seating it, and then do you use a crimp die to finish it or just leave the neck as is? I've never had the pleasure of working in the dark art of cast "Bool...

Robert,

You said that AAC would be selling the custom Sierra 125 grain OTM projectiles.
Any word on when they will be available?

I have tried several loads using H-110 with the 110 vmax. I started with a load that was posted on the forum that listed 21.4gr. That was way to hot for me!!!! I have backed down to 18 grains which is just starting to show pressure signs in my 10.3 Delta Company uppper. I am shooting through a AAC ...

I've had similar problems with brass I bought from one of the guys on here.. I got primers that fell out and jam my action twice.. it pretty much disabled the gun as it wedged under the trigger.. taking the trigger pins out was the only solution to clear the jam. in all cases the brass was federal!...

It would appear that from my brass hitting the rear of the ejection port, that my rifle is short stroking. If there was a gas issue with my rifle could that account for the pressure issues I am seeing? No... The only impact the rifle can have on the brass in this context is to tear it up by extract...

I think ammo companies should design their ammo to work in existing guns. Running a 10" Noveske barrel suppressed, what powder would you recomend to slow down the cyclic rate of supersonics? The Noveske barrels are configured to run subsonics with a suppressor and supersonics without a suppres...

The premise for "touching the lands" is more about how much "jump" a particular bullet "likes" in a particular rifle. Berger bullets are well known to work well when seated close to the lands. Does it also change the pressure? Absolutely! Both from a case volume perspec...

They do make roll crimp dies for use in revolvers though.

Not likely...
Burns way too slow to be used in 300 BLK.

The good news is that 1 pound of powder typically yields 350 - 700 cartridges.

Or until you drop them...

The TBAC 30P-1 and 30BA are 100% Ti, rated for up to 300 Ultra Mag and are known for their accuracy on precision rifles. I have been running a 30P-1 on my 308 bolt gun and my 300 BLK for over a year now and have no complaints. (In the interest of full disclosure, I got this can from a prize table at...

Will Sierra be selling the new 125 grain OTM bullet to the open market?
If so, any idea of a time frame?

Another big plus for the Browning Buckmark is that the breach has two use openings for gas and debris to escape out of when out of battery. This also allows you to "Field Clean" the thing in ten seconds flat. Just the crud factor alone would be cause for me to switch to a Buckmark. I would...

I'll bring my 30P-1 into work tommorow and will take a photo with the borescope. Not sure of the baffle count, but I know it is at least six. (Will check it out with the scope as well.) Cheers, If it only has 6 or even 7-8 baffles, some manufacturers might be working to hard huh ? Pics of inside wo...
