![]() This cartridge has its roots in the Special Operations community where the need exists for a cartridge that feeds reliably out of AR-15-pattern magazines, uses the same bolt and magazine, and offers improved lethality over the 5.56x45mm. ![]() Many are familiar with the rise of the 300 AAC Blackout. SIG Sauer’s ammo division has an impressive staff that has already demonstrated their ability to find solutions where others have failed. Who runs the show, the experience of the people involved, funding and engineering prowess are all critical aspects that will absolutely affect the ammunition’s large-scale performance. To fully understand what separates one brand of ammunition from another, you have to take a look at the company that makes it. Also, performance out of one firearm in a single, or even a handful of experiences, is far from a good indicator of performance on a broader scale. Ammo often gets classified as “good”, or not, based on how it shoots out of a rifle or pistol, with very little thought or discussion about what it takes to create that ammo in the first place. Yes I have shot heavy subs from my BO carbine, still loud! Without a specific reason for subs, their just tacticool.Ammunition is one of the most misunderstood categories in the firearms industry. Still would have leaked if the hole was smaller. I did shoot a pig carcass with 185gr 50/50 RD style, 40-45 ROUND exit hole that leaked a goodly amount of green fluid. Most were one shot kills but 100yd track, neck shots not allowed. How much difference does a bigger hole really make? Ever see what a 70gr 243 does to a deer? 14 kids lost a lot of doe & spike meat on their hunt. Anything leaves blood shot meat but I'd rather not pick out shrapnel from my burgers. Shot that cast and jacketed 115 9mm into a rock pile, 9 was busted to pieces, 40SW was like a beer can. Still went ~100yds and left a small blood trail. Went through to rump, broke a leg, exited under the jaw with a bunch of bone. I tried 2 additional shots with hold-over - no hits. ![]() How much leade do you need on a running yote 75 yds to even hit it with a sub? I got a running hog 25 with hard alloy 40sw TC but it took 3 shots. Yes, BO (whisper) was developed for suppressed (military) subs. Unless you are going suppressed IMHO subs are irrelevant. Most of my hunting is with tsx in various calibers. After I saw what cast bullet can do in HP form at low velocity- I start to test them on smaller animals. I have shoot our game with 7mmRM, 338 LM, 222,223,22-250,7圆4.and that cast 300 Blk became just a part of my hunting because I bought RAR in 300 Blk just to be shoot with cast, practice with subsonic bullets. Wild goat 1y old made 1 step, 151grs HP cast subsonic. Soft lead and a big hollowpoint seems to shed petals, perhaps a harder lead would be better in this application- thoughts?Īt the same time maybe a soft lead in a flat nose without the hollow point etc might perform well at subsonic velocities.ġ0:1 alloy low speed-to hard for perfect expansion, but do you need that perfection? It will kill wellģ11410 130grs going fast, 1250fps, green are all 10:1, blue is pure lead/gc.Įven pure after 1150 lost nose. ![]() Very interested in how various lead types react at different velocities/bullet types. thanks for the pics and the real world experience- will be picking your brain.
