For a while now, I've had the thought of trying out 300 Blackout. Those that have them talk about the caliber like it's the end all, be all of AR platform compatible rounds.
While I was at the range today, I was talking to the owner as he was doing the paper work on a gun I just bought and asked him what he thought of the 300 Blackout. He really surprised me and says that he's seen many fads come and go and that the 300 BO was one of them. Then, he tells me to go over to the ammo shelves and grab a specific box and tells me to open it up and look at it.
I opened the box and what I see is what looks like a case the size of a 5.56, but straight walled. I look at the box and it says 145gr. WOW.
Anyone have any experience with this round? Pros? Cons?
