Same guy was making 200 gr flat noses and I made a jig to drill em out to about 180 grain.

Rule of thumb for subsonic load dev is work your way down teh charge weight slowly. If you are running a rattle gun BLK then get an adjustable gas block or H3 buffer and make sure it will lock back on empty.

Yeah your on to it there @Timmay. They are very good pills, but as i'm a bit of a scrouge i like the 125 SST hornady developed for the Blackout.

I think the a Ruger American in 300 BLK migh replace the AR upper. Quieter and I find that a lot of my shooting with the 300 is with the kids / wife or for deer.

I hate chasing brass after culling goats...

why not just get an easily adjustable gas block and lock it off? Seems like a cheaper alternative?
