Yes Sir, I have three guns in the 300 BLK. Two AR that I built and one Ruger American Ranch. Fun guns to shoot and hunt with. The last buck I took was with the 300 Blk Out.
@@chriswhorror6658 Chris in reference to what I used to shoot the deer with it was a Ruger American Ranch with a suppressor on it. I think those ar 16.5 inch barrels. The ARs one is a 16 inch and the other is a 10.5 inch. I hope this helps.
@@whatsmolly5741 to answer your question, yes. More than enough. Plus brass, bullets and powder to load hundreds more. I buy in bulk and did this way before the shortage and price hike.
Love my kp15 dissipator build. Carry handle 15" barrel, got thenopen sights zeroed for 300yds with 125grers and a red dot ontop zeroed for 100yds with 200gr subs. It's one heck of a rifle.
300 BLK is incredibly hard to come by here in Germany right now. Used to shoot the vortx for roe deer but this season will switch to S&B Exergy Blue - almost identical to the Vortx at little over half the price 👍
I would like to make a slight suggestion for your next bullet comparison video. Have a chronograph so that you can show what the velocity spread is between the shots. Vertical dispersion is due to velocity differences. Left and right dispersion is due to firearm movement and wind. Also a 5 shot group give you a better average performance of the rounds.
I have store bought 300blk, but the vast majority of my supply I loaded with 115gr soft points and 125gr fmj and they turn in sub moa groups out of either of my 300blk weapons. Took two deer and six hogs between them. Good enough for me. Building up enough to enjoy a range day or hog hunt is a serious challenge nowadays.
Thats awesome, I have been saying 300BLK is more "lethal" even when going against 5.56 with a longer barrel. Say 9" 300BLK dumps xy foot pounds And 11.5 or 14.5 5.56 dumps the same foot pounds on target I believe the 300 BLK is more lethal due to diameter with modern expanding bullets such as Barnes Tac-TX.
It's interesting how similar different makers and weights will group but they do so in different locations. Some will group to the left, some towards the top, etc.
Nice shooting! I really like the ammo test videos! It's been awhile since I've seen an American Eagle Box! I use to buy them quite often before I started hand-loading! 🇺🇲✝️🇺🇲
I appreciate the video. I recently shot my first whitetail with my blackout. Ran about 50 yards and piled up. Grain weight is important and you pretty much covered it all
Would like to see what each of those are doing thru the Chrono. A bit expensive but would be some great info to pass along. Thanks brother. Keep shooting str8!!
Something I love about your video, that I haven't seen any mention (perhaps I haven't read far enough) is how your groups show the consistency of the weight affects on the rise or drop of the bullet. Really helps me choose what ammo I'm looking for. For example, your 110gr ammo started dropping below the penny target by 100 yards since it was so light. 150gr was slightly high for distance trajectory. And 125gr was pretty much on par with the distance and penny size dot. That's fantastic information. Tells me what grains I want to look for in what applications. Obviously gun, barrel quality and other factors can affect certain groups. But seeing the consistency of bullet drop or rise when considering the weight really helps. Thank you for doing this video. Gives me something to build my choices from. 👍
I have no clue how I missed this vid from a year ago. But.....I found it today. Very informative and thank you. I hunted with the Barnes 110 grain Vor-TX last season and harvested 2 nice doe here in Arkansas. One was right at 100 yards and the other maybe 30 yards. One was DRT and the other ran about 30 yards. I was impressed. Gonna sight in the Barnes 120 grain JHP just for shits and giggles. If it groups good I'll take it hunting. Have a great day and upcoming season bruh !
Love the 300blk, I usually load 165 GR Hornady BTSP with 14.7 gr H110 for hog hunting. Really works well out of my 10.5 Core 15. Can't wait to see the subsonic video. 🇺🇸👍
The Defiant load is made with a Maker T-REX bullet... I like that bullet more than any other. I shoot an 85gr bullet that's moving out at a M.V. of +/- about 2,500fps without any pressure issues with a 5R rifled ultralight profile barrel. It's a Coyote crackin', Deer dumpin', Hog hittin' little bam stick... It's not just for 100 yards either... I have poked coyotes out to probably 250+yds with it at night before with it when I was in the mood to carry something that was a bit more light weight that some other calibers. You can REALLY hear it THUMP when that .30 caliber hits a Pasture 🐩 Poodle that's more than about 75 or 100yds away from you... One of the best sounds ever!!!
love the video, haven't seen anyone do such a comprehensive accuracy test. I would just like to see a 5 shot group, as I know the Frontier can be very accurate
Have nearly everything for my first 300 BLK build (and first custom AR build of any caliber), including several types of ammo for this very same type of test (including a couple of the same ammo types like the Federal American Eagle and Frontier). Only waiting on the proper barrel nut socket to torque it down and get everything on the upper assembled! Can't wait to take it out to the range once it's done. One funny observation I had with your video--how *immediately* noticeable the larger holes are vs. .223 lol (I mean duh, but just saying). Also, I'll be interested in seeing what differences I'll have with my barrel--I have a 7.5" 1:5 twist barrel vs your 16" barrel which I assume is either 1:7 or 1:8. I wanted the 1:5 twist because I do plan on running subs and I've read how that twist rate is more accurate when you have a shorter barrel like mine.
Friendly advice from one who knows...try and train yourself NOT to blink when you pull the trigger:) Given how well you shoot now, you'll be impressed with your performance improvement :) thumbs up. Practice by taking your videos of your face and try shooting a 22lr till you get the hang of it, then move up to bigger calibers. Just so you know, A LOT if not MOST of the .375 and up guys blink like crazy LOL, but the best snipers in the world can handle the .338 Lapua, and a few, even the heavily modified (to reduce recoil) 50 cal's, quite literally, "without batting an eye". Great fun channel :)
You should do a penetration test with the subsonics. I was blown away at the results I got. In aolid oak, I was getting 11" - 12" of penetration. 5.56 was just 4" at best.
American Eagle does great in my 300AAC rifles and consistently performs across 3 or 4 different cartridge calibers (223, 6.5 Grendel...). Kudos to Federal for being affordable and high quality! The Federal Fusion 150 Grain is even better! 300 Blackout is my new favorite 'sub-200 yard' hunting round. Bolt Action Ruger American or semi-auto AR based shooting and they're both great. I love that round.
Thanks for the great content and I now it is hard to do these videos bc of the bullet shortage keep the great videos up it's these tips of videos that make America great 👌😁🖖
I've got 2 300blackout ARs, I need to test like this from both. Ones a 16inch with a radicalfirearms upper/barrel. The other is a 7.5inch with a tactical kinetics barrel. The 16 is a 1n8 twist and the 7.5 is a 1n7 twist. Should have thrown in some 125 gr PPU FMJ, of a 5 round group 3 were touching.
Considering that the American Eagle is cheapest and agrees with the sighting of your Barnaul, I'd call that one the real winner. I doubt that I'll ever own a gun in 300 Blackout, but I think that's a neat caliber.
Get you a chop saw and a bucket of used 223 brass and you can make any version of this caliber for a whole lot less moolah. I’ve been doing this awhile and it’s easy enough for me to do.
Love the vid. I looked up the Defiant Munitions ammo. It was comedically expensive. No ammo, and I mean no ammo is worth $64.95/box. That’s $3.25/round. They wanted $81.38 for a 50 round box of 9mm. Company needs to figure out how to fix their operating cost.
That WAS kind of an expensive video to make. I was feeling bad until I remembered that you're shooting that through that nice CMMG rifle... If you were using something from PSA, I could sympathize more. Nice video...
I too love my 300 Blackout through a 16” barrel with 110 grain ammo. I prefer 110 grain Underwood at over 2400 fps out of a 16” barrel and Underwood’s attention to detail, I believe it to be even more accurate than anything you’ve tested.
Been looking at this caliber. Thinking about building me one in the 16” barrel. Not real sure about it tho but I can see where someone the does all of his reloading would have a ton of fun with this.
Just got a 300 BLK and not yet fired but this video makes me feel better about buying 500 rds of a less expensive brand (not lowest but down there). At 20 for a standard box, trying to find the best for a new gun gets expensive, had one rifle the worst ammo was a well known expensive brand, my rifle hated it.
Awesome “GROUP THERAPY “ as I like to call it. I’d love to see some hunting videos with that weapon. I know you may know this already, but you should get you a set of digital calipers and measure your groups. The proper way to measure is, in a 3 shot group measure from outside edge to edge of the 2 farthest apart. Then subtract the bullet diameter. It’s really easy to do.
i go with the barnes for hunting. In Germany, where i hunt, it´s nearly 10 bucks cheaper per 20 rounds and it expands like a dream... For practice i use the cheap stuff for 1$ per pew from PPU, DDM4 PDW for close quarter stalk’n hunt.
That was fun but I’m not sure about the accuracy part. If you factor in the 6x LPVO - with that reticle, the fact that the groups were only 3 shots, the bench rest, and trigger(?), I would think that these results are all within “margin of error,” and that one can’t actually try to make a call on which is better or worse. Would have a lot more confidence in an accuracy test if you used a scope with 9 zoomies at least, and a sub-MOA reticle, and took 5 shots. One takeaway for certain: that gun is pretty accurate, and those varieties of ammo seem very consistent.
Great review, interesting to see how well the Federal did. I use 115 gr. Lehigh Defense Controlled Choas rounds for home protection. Those rounds are just nasty!
We use the 300 BO to hunt feral hogs. My son uses the Barnes 110's. He has taken two hogs with one shot. We hold in front of the shoulder and they drop. The 300 BO is interesting because it runs supersonic and subsonic with just a magazine change. This cartridge justs works, despite being less powerful than 7.62x39.
HSM, Hunting Shack Munitions. There was a LE warning sent out some years ago after some issues. Had some .223 that was completely unreliable and jammed consistently. Now this was over a decade ago, I can only hope their quality control has improved. But I will not be using the HSM products anytime soon. As far as .300 BO goes, I really like handloads, Lil Gun and Hornady 110gr V-Max bullets.
I was thinking about buying a Radical AR . I went to a blog to see what people thought about the rifle. Some people said they were getting as small as five eighths at a 100 yards. One guy uses the 300 bulk out to shoot wild pigs with 125s . He said they don’t go very far.
Thanks for this video! I’m just now looking at ammo to try in my AR so this was very helpful. Was surprised by the AE. What is the twist rate on the rifle you used here?
About to go hunting with my 16 in 300 blk. Started shooting to calibrate prism scope with Winchester USA Ready ammo and it shot 1inch group. Wanted to use the 110 Barnes tactx but they couldn't hold group. Went with a Hornady 125g ballistic tipped round and got better again within that 1in group.
I'd run a 10 round test with your 2 best groups to really see how the barrel likes them. I'm happy to see those. Still not sure if I want to build a 16" rifle or a short(er) pistol build.
Seriously looking at picking up a Ruger AR pistol 10.5” in .300 Blackout as my new truck gun. Put a single point sling and a Vortex Crossfire red dot on her!! That and the new 10mm Sig P320 XTen as a backup… bring on the zombies!!
The Frontier did pretty well also. I was curious how the CMMG rifle shoots in 300 blk. I’m expecting mine to show up any day now. Hope it shoots as well as yours.
I LOVE the 300 BO. I've put everything from a 220 gr to a 110 thru it and have gotten the best results with the 110 Nostler. They shot as well as or better than the Barnes but at 1/3 the price. One BO website touted the Barnes as the premiere bullet to reload and I went for the hype. Found the Nostler that was my favorite colour (ON SALE) .......... Consistently touchie feelie at 100 yds in the bull. Barnes and the Sierra 110's were in there but price and consistent groups won the day. I zero at 100 and hold one mil-dot high at 200 and almost/sometimes get MOA. 115 and 125 gr bullets grouped well but but not good enough for me. This testing was done when primers were still $35.- a brick😛 Believe it or not I got MOA with the 180 gr. at 100 yds sub-sonic (Midway bulk factory seconds) with an attached can. p.s.- I have 300 or more Barnes 110's to get rid of if anyone in the E. TN area wishes to get them. .............. enjoy
Got a 300 blk ar. Fun rifle. Built it for my kids to use for deer hunting. All the rounds I have are handloaded supersonic 125 grain variety. I'm hoping that the 125 grain will be a happy medium to allow for good speed and enough umph to put Bambi down.
You should see if Anarchy Outdoors would send you some of their upgrades that they make for the Ruger American rifles. I have a bunch myself and most of parts I upgraded is in the bolt and makes a huge difference in the rifle!
In the house 🏡. 300blk is one of my favorites! I’m looking forward to you doing the clay block at 50 100 and 200 yards with 300blk
I agree
Same!
I never got into 300 blackout, but I’ve shot some, and it was very nice. Glad you’re still putting vids out WTW!
I'm glad to see the Barnaul steel case shooting respectable groups, it's reasonably priced compared to most any other 300 Blackout ammo.
This one I’m SUPER excited for. This is the one I’m going to build next and was waiting to see more videos on them! Thanks a bunch!
Yes Sir, I have three guns in the 300 BLK. Two AR that I built and one Ruger American Ranch. Fun guns to shoot and hunt with. The last buck I took was with the 300 Blk Out.
What size barrel?
@@chriswhorror6658 Chris in reference to what I used to shoot the deer with it was a Ruger American Ranch with a suppressor on it. I think those ar 16.5 inch barrels. The ARs one is a 16 inch and the other is a 10.5 inch. I hope this helps.
But do you have enough ammo to feed 3 guns is the real question?
@@whatsmolly5741 to answer your question, yes. More than enough. Plus brass, bullets and powder to load hundreds more. I buy in bulk and did this way before the shortage and price hike.
What ammo did you use?
Those Barnes rounds do some damage when they hit an animal. Wicked rounds. Love them!
Love my kp15 dissipator build. Carry handle 15" barrel, got thenopen sights zeroed for 300yds with 125grers and a red dot ontop zeroed for 100yds with 200gr subs. It's one heck of a rifle.
I run magtech, because I just want the brass 🤓
I freaking love 300 blk. Hopefully one day I'll get a nice suppressor for mine.
Love this caliber…cut and reload tons of it…outstanding accuracy…
The 110 grain Barnes VorTX rounds kill deer quick.
Very good demo test. Good info. 100 yard deer getter. Thank you.

I believe the 300 BLK is more lethal due to diameter with modern expanding bullets such as Barnes Tac-TX.
Personally, I never liked steel case ammo. The Defiant and the American eagle were awesome!
I’ve seen a lot boys around here going to this caliber. That CMMG is a good looking thunder stick. Thanks again WTW for the good information. 👍🇺🇸🙏🏻
Good to see you at Heavy Metal. Glad Paul is feeling better.
Straight to the point and provided outstanding data, thank you.
This! Is about to be a really fun video!
I agree! Always appreciate you watching!
Great video! It always mazes me how much difference there is between makers and boolat type/weight. 🤔
It's interesting how similar different makers and weights will group but they do so in different locations. Some will group to the left, some towards the top, etc.
Nice shooting! I really like the ammo test videos! It's been awhile since I've seen an American Eagle Box! I use to buy them quite often before I started hand-loading!
🇺🇲✝️🇺🇲
Yeah I like shooting 300 blackout it's good round I shoot from 115 grains right up to 150 grain bullet thanks for the video I really enjoyed it
Definitely one of the calibers I’m most interested in. Thanks for the test!
I appreciate the video. I recently shot my first whitetail with my blackout. Ran about 50 yards and piled up. Grain weight is important and you pretty much covered it all
Great video, Adam!
Would like to see what each of those are doing thru the Chrono. A bit expensive but would be some great info to pass along. Thanks brother. Keep shooting str8!!
Thanks for the testing. We know that stuff gets very expensive...fast! But dang brother, $50.00 / box!? Ouch! I think i'd have left that one out. 😥
Start learning how to reload. You will save money and be able to have consistent grouping.
Something I love about your video, that I haven't seen any mention (perhaps I haven't read far enough) is how your groups show the consistency of the weight affects on the rise or drop of the bullet. Really helps me choose what ammo I'm looking for. For example, your 110gr ammo started dropping below the penny target by 100 yards since it was so light. 150gr was slightly high for distance trajectory. And 125gr was pretty much on par with the distance and penny size dot. That's fantastic information. Tells me what grains I want to look for in what applications. Obviously gun, barrel quality and other factors can affect certain groups. But seeing the consistency of bullet drop or rise when considering the weight really helps. Thank you for doing this video. Gives me something to build my choices from. 👍
I believe the 110 grain will drop less. The lighter bullet will have a greater muzzle velocity.
I have no clue how I missed this vid from a year ago. But.....I found it today. Very informative and thank you.
I hunted with the Barnes 110 grain Vor-TX last season and harvested 2 nice doe here in Arkansas. One was right at 100 yards and the other maybe 30 yards. One was DRT and the other ran about 30 yards. I was impressed. Gonna sight in the Barnes 120 grain JHP just for shits and giggles. If it groups good I'll take it hunting. Have a great day and upcoming season bruh !
Oh man what perfect timing. Me and my buddy were discussing the different 300 rounds the other day. I'll have to send him the link when the videos out
Love the 300blk, I usually load 165 GR Hornady BTSP with 14.7 gr H110 for hog hunting. Really works well out of my 10.5 Core 15. Can't wait to see the subsonic video. 🇺🇸👍
Do u know dragon breath load velocity
What yardage do you have it sighted in at
The 300 Blackout just eats the 110 grain supersonic loads. My 16" 300 BO with a 1/8 twist rate barrel always does the best with 110 grain loads.
I hope he's using a ruger american. I'm about to buy one
My favorite round. So versatile. 3 different guns, 3 different purposes. 1 caliber. :)
Sorry man... American Eagle for the win! You had 2 touching. Those average 1/4".
Which I am glad for. Since, I have one or 2 boxes of that stuff!
The Defiant load is made with a Maker T-REX bullet... I like that bullet more than any other.
I shoot an 85gr bullet that's moving out at a M.V. of +/- about 2,500fps without any pressure issues with a 5R rifled ultralight profile barrel.
It's a Coyote crackin', Deer dumpin', Hog hittin' little bam stick...
It's not just for 100 yards either... I have poked coyotes out to probably 250+yds with it at night
before with it when I was in the mood to carry something that was a bit more light weight that some other calibers. You can REALLY hear it THUMP when that .30 caliber hits a Pasture 🐩
Poodle that's more than about 75 or 100yds away from you... One of the best sounds ever!!!

I've got 2 300blackout ARs, I need to test like this from both. Ones a 16inch with a radicalfirearms upper/barrel. The other is a 7.5inch with a tactical kinetics barrel. The 16 is a 1n8 twist and the 7.5 is a 1n7 twist.
Should have thrown in some 125 gr PPU FMJ, of a 5 round group 3 were touching.
Great video! Keep up the good work!
A man that uses paper plates for targets too... Good shit lol
Thanks 4 taking the time to make these vids.. thinking bout getting a 300, 8" upper for my AR Suppressed Pistol.
Appreciate you watching
Was glad to see this test with supersonic ammo at 100 yards. I am so tired of hearing about subsonic stuff!
I've found some 300blk 125 grain sig ammo and my 16" barrel really like it. Found it during the "one box a day" phase and can't find it anywhere now.
Considering that the American Eagle is cheapest and agrees with the sighting of your Barnaul, I'd call that one the real winner. I doubt that I'll ever own a gun in 300 Blackout, but I think that's a neat caliber.
That Defiant & American Eagle ammo rocked it.
I actually use that Barnes round for whitetail hunting. Lungs are always blown to mush.
Next up, the subsonic round! Good stuff!
My Ruger Ranch loves the Barnes VOR-TX, half inch 3 shot groups all day.
Congratulations on joining team Remington hope they send you all the ammo you can use
Get you a chop saw and a bucket of used 223 brass and you can make any version of this caliber for a whole lot less moolah. I’ve been doing this awhile and it’s easy enough for me to do.
Love the vid.
I looked up the Defiant Munitions ammo. It was comedically expensive. No ammo, and I mean no ammo is worth $64.95/box. That’s $3.25/round. They wanted $81.38 for a 50 round box of 9mm. Company needs to figure out how to fix their operating cost.

I'm currently shooting the 125gr underwood ballistic tips at 2250fps. Got it sighted in. Can't wait to see the performance deer hunting this year
That AR shoots some decent groups!
Been looking at this caliber. Thinking about building me one in the 16” barrel. Not real sure about it tho but I can see where someone the does all of his reloading would have a ton of fun with this.
Love these test videos. Would be awesome to see other brands such as Gorilla, Hornady and Underwood as well. But these are definitely pricy.
Just got a 300 BLK and not yet fired but this video makes me feel better about buying 500 rds of a less expensive brand (not lowest but down there). At 20 for a standard box, trying to find the best for a new gun gets expensive, had one rifle the worst ammo was a well known expensive brand, my rifle hated it.
Awesome “GROUP THERAPY “ as I like to call it. I’d love to see some hunting videos with that weapon. I know you may know this already, but you should get you a set of digital calipers and measure your groups. The proper way to measure is, in a 3 shot group measure from outside edge to edge of the 2 farthest apart. Then subtract the bullet diameter. It’s really easy to do.
Nice shooting
I only hear Hank Hill when you talk, and I gotta say, it's soothing haha
Dangit bobby
Do a 50,100,and 200 drop test
Would have been a great test if sighted in with all hunting ammo
Defiant is great if you’re not worried about cost, for my money that American Eagle looked pretty dang good Sir!
i go with the barnes for hunting. In Germany, where i hunt, it´s nearly 10 bucks cheaper per 20 rounds and it expands like a dream... For practice i use the cheap stuff for 1$ per pew from PPU, DDM4 PDW for close quarter stalk’n hunt.
Thank you for doing this test with a 16" and supersonic ammo
That was fun but I’m not sure about the accuracy part. If you factor in the 6x LPVO - with that reticle, the fact that the groups were only 3 shots, the bench rest, and trigger(?), I would think that these results are all within “margin of error,” and that one can’t actually try to make a call on which is better or worse. Would have a lot more confidence in an accuracy test if you used a scope with 9 zoomies at least, and a sub-MOA reticle, and took 5 shots.
One takeaway for certain: that gun is pretty accurate, and those varieties of ammo seem very consistent.
we appreciate it. i for one am tossing up wether to buy a 300 or not so these videos really help thanks.
Very inclusive testing for supersonic ammo. 👍👍
I see you buy your targets the same place I do. LoL 😂
Great comparison, love your content!
It's good there that ammunition is freely sold and can be used as shooting practice
Great review, interesting to see how well the Federal did. I use 115 gr. Lehigh Defense Controlled Choas rounds for home protection. Those rounds are just nasty!
Why does anyone use the 147-150gr bullets? They drop like a rock out at 200yrds. I use my 300blk to kill hogs here in TX and love the 125-135gr.
We use the 300 BO to hunt feral hogs. My son uses the Barnes 110's.
He has taken two hogs with one shot. We hold in front of the shoulder and they drop. The 300 BO is interesting because it runs supersonic and subsonic with just a magazine change. This cartridge justs works, despite being less powerful than 7.62x39.

As far as .300 BO goes, I really like handloads, Lil Gun and Hornady 110gr V-Max bullets.
You tube had taken you off of my subscribed list but I’m back
Daggumit
They keep doing it to a lot of my subs , SUX.
I was thinking about buying a Radical AR . I went to a blog to see what people thought about the rifle. Some people said they were getting as small as five eighths at a 100 yards. One guy uses the 300 bulk out to shoot wild pigs with 125s . He said they don’t go very far.
Love that American Eagle, especially in 10mm! Soft shootin for plinkin and cheaper than most.
Thanks for this video! I’m just now looking at ammo to try in my AR so this was very helpful. Was surprised by the AE.
What is the twist rate on the rifle you used here?
About to go hunting with my 16 in 300 blk. Started shooting to calibrate prism scope with Winchester USA Ready ammo and it shot 1inch group. Wanted to use the 110 Barnes tactx but they couldn't hold group. Went with a Hornady 125g ballistic tipped round and got better again within that 1in group.
I'd run a 10 round test with your 2 best groups to really see how the barrel likes them. I'm happy to see those. Still not sure if I want to build a 16" rifle or a short(er) pistol build.
Wondering how an 8" will work for hunting deer?
Just make sure it's a pistol gas system because you might have trouble cycling sub sonics with a carbine length gas system.
@@whatsmolly5741 Would that include a CMMG Banshee?
Thanks!
Incredible groups for 100 yards.
Yup.. thats minute of goat all day
Seriously looking at picking up a Ruger AR pistol 10.5” in .300 Blackout as my new truck gun. Put a single point sling and a Vortex Crossfire red dot on her!! That and the new 10mm Sig P320 XTen as a backup… bring on the zombies!!
The Frontier did pretty well also. I was curious how the CMMG rifle shoots in 300 blk. I’m expecting mine to show up any day now. Hope it shoots as well as yours.
I LOVE the 300 BO. I've put everything from a 220 gr to a 110 thru it and have gotten the best results with the 110 Nostler. They shot as well as or better than the Barnes but at 1/3 the price.
One BO website touted the Barnes as the premiere bullet to reload and I went for the hype. Found the Nostler that was my favorite colour (ON SALE) .......... Consistently touchie feelie at 100 yds in the bull. Barnes and the Sierra 110's were in there but price and consistent groups won the day. I zero at 100 and hold one mil-dot high at 200 and almost/sometimes get MOA. 115 and 125 gr bullets grouped well but but not good enough for me. This testing was done when primers were still $35.- a brick😛
Believe it or not I got MOA with the 180 gr. at 100 yds sub-sonic (Midway bulk factory seconds) with an attached can.
p.s.- I have 300 or more Barnes 110's to get rid of if anyone in the E. TN area wishes to get them. .............. enjoy
Still got that ammo?? Lmaoo
Bullets only .......... No loaded rounds ...................

You could do a freedom munitions test. 50 rnd boxes are decent enough priced
The Barnes I have found do as advertised on expansion, but the nosler varmageddon groups the best for me.
Great video Who Tee!!
🙏🙏🙏
Good vid but would like to see 5 shot groups but always love ur vids bro
Got a 300 blk ar. Fun rifle. Built it for my kids to use for deer hunting. All the rounds I have are handloaded supersonic 125 grain variety. I'm hoping that the 125 grain will be a happy medium to allow for good speed and enough umph to put Bambi down.
You should see if Anarchy Outdoors would send you some of their upgrades that they make for the Ruger American rifles. I have a bunch myself and most of parts I upgraded is in the bolt and makes a huge difference in the rifle!
I can't wait to get the Ruger Ranch in 300BLK. Cool vid
Defiant is awesome stuff! I use for hunting and in my carry pistol.
Looks like I need to find me some Defiant .300 Blackout. Great video!
