what,s the difference between the 300 whisper an 300 blk out
i see that smith & wesson makes a m&p in 300 whisper which also shoots the 300 black out what is the difference between these two rounds. is one better then the other.does any other manufacture,s make a 300 whisper.

Based upon what Silvers was saying on the 300whisper forum, it is actually cut with a 300blk reamer.jackson wrote:i see that smith & wesson makes a m&p in 300 whisper which also shoots the 300 black out what is the difference between these two rounds. is one better then the other.does any other manufacture,s make a 300 whisper.

300 Whisper is proprietary to JD JOnes, he wanted it all to himself(limited sales increadibly)sha-ul wrote:Based upon what Silvers was saying on the 300whisper forum, it is actually cut with a 300blk reamer.jackson wrote:i see that smith & wesson makes a m&p in 300 whisper which also shoots the 300 black out what is the difference between these two rounds. is one better then the other.does any other manufacture,s make a 300 whisper.
300BLK is SAAMI approved and available to everyone, AAC has done a great thing by getting a SAAMI version of the 300Whisper out there!

To partly answer the OP, it is minor pysical differences.
Maybe Robert has a diagram.
My understanding is you can shoot a 300 whisper in a 300 blackout gun, but not vice-versa.

Shoot softly, and carry a big clip.

The whisper is primarily a hand loader, tinkerer round. I think Hornady is packing Whisper® branded rounds.jackson wrote:... does any other manufacture,s make a 300 whisper.

In a nutshell the BLK has a longer throat than the Whisper. Kinda like comparing a 5.56 chamber to a 223.

I am no longer sure that is true. In any case, they say it is safe to fire 300 BLK rounds. Thompson (owned by S&W) had a prior relationship with SSK, as did Hornady, so they continued to license Whisper(R).sha-ul wrote:Based upon what Silvers was saying on the 300whisper forum, it is actually cut with a 300blk reamer.

Do you think they modified their reamer to be blk compatible?silencertalk wrote:I am no longer sure that is true. In any case, they say it is safe to fire 300 BLK rounds.

Where does Wilson's 7.62x40 fit in?

Wilson makes ammo for 7.62x40mm. At equal pressure to 300 BLK, it should be about 80 fps more velocity.

No. 300BLK is 7.62x35, Wilson is 7.62x40, and there are other differences as well.FullHouse wrote:Compatibility with 300BLK and Whisper? Chambers etc...silencertalk wrote:Wilson makes ammo for 7.62x40mm. At equal pressure to 300 BLK, it should be about 80 fps more velocity.
They are completely different cartridges.
