On a side note, a movie in 1946 was made about Hiram’s life and titled So Goes My Love. I also intend to hunt with a suppressor, or silencer if you want to retain the original name that its inventor Hiram Maxim called them back in 1902 the “Maxim Silencer” to be exact. Iron sights were plenty good at these distances. I grew up hunting in such places with a Winchester Model 94 30-30 which is an excellent “brush gun” as we liked to call them. In my particular case, I intend on hunting with this rifle in thick woods where a 50 yard or less shot is common. In fact, 200 yards is a very reasonable and ethical hunting distance. Now before anyone goes all sniper on me, most folks, and let’s be honest here, are not able to shoot reliably to 500 yards even under ideal conditions. Flying subsonic, 200 yards is pushing the limits of effectiveness outside of threats made of paper. 300 Blackout, it has an effective supersonic combat range of about 500 yards. According to an uncited Wikipedia article on the. 300 Blackout went into military service in July of 2015 when the Netherland’s Dutch Maritime Special Operations Force (NL-MARSOF) ordered 195 carbines chambered in 300 BLK. 45 ACP will bounce off cowhide at distance while the 300 BLK should still shatter bone. 300 Blackout behaves more like a 7.62×39 round causing death hundreds of yards away.

While the initial ballistics of a 300 BLK running subsonic are very similar to a. In fact, the high bullet weight of the subsonic 300 BLK ammo is not just to slow down the bullet (F=MA in Newtonian physics) but also to provide enough of an equal and opposite force to cycle a traditional AR bolt and buffer (Newton’s Third Law of Motion).

300 Blackout, it is a cartridge deliberately made to run flawlessly in an AR rifle in both subsonic and supersonic. Major adjustments and tuning would be needed. And they are certainly not able to interchange between supersonic and subsonic on the fly. 300 Blackout can drop a deer at 200 yards, or lob 30-cal lead downrange with little more noise than a cycling bolt.ĪK 47 rifles are near impossible to run subsonic due to the gas system. In fact, it is this latter capability that 300 BLK owners find most attractive. Oh, and best of all, easily running both supersonic and subsonic in the same rifle with absolutely no change in the gun. 300 Blackout is a 30 caliber solution that grew from a set of needs not the least of which included the use of existing AR-style magazines while maintaining the same mag capacity, the use of M4-style platform uppers and lowers being ballistically similar to the AK 47 round of 7.62mm x 39mm, and be a higher-mass barrier-penetrating bullet while maintaining low recoil and high performance through short suppressed barrels. 300 Blackout still has that new car smell. 300 Whisper cartridge getting formal SAAMI joy in 2011 which is why the.
