I just loaded some 300BLK round using 190gr Hornady Sub-X and 8.1gr of LilGun. They chrono'd at 1184FPS avg, and were not subsonic (the 223's I loaded up that chronod at under 1000fos were silent.... until they hit the backstop). According to the Hodgdon data, 8.3gr should have put it at 1,044fps, so it seems other factors may be at play. They also didn't cycle right - they cycled enough to eject the empty, but the BCG (This is an AR15 BTW) got hung up just shy of being able to strip off the next round -even after the last round, it got hung up part way back. On the other hand, I've shot 300BLK subsonic rounds using 208gr Hornady A-max bullets that cycled perfectly. I have IMR4198 and IMR4227 that I could also try, and I note that apparently 4198 is a compressed load with the 190gr SubX. Is it possible that a different powder might provide different results with regards to cycling? Does anyone have a good load using the 190gr SubX that'll cycle an AR - OR, are there any BCG or buffer spring options that might allow proper cycling with the SubX round (I'm not against a different BCG or buffer spring to make them cycle right)?
