I just finished my pistol today. I am in the process of getting 500rnds loaded.
pics of said pistol????
only asking cuz i want to build a pistol and 300 blackout is on my mebbe list
My 300 BLK pistol is my favorite thing ever. Accurate 5744 with 150 grain @ 2000 fps is my load.
Just finished my first pistol build, now to build a 300blk shorty upper. What length barrel did you go with?
I am a little nervous about posting a pic of the the pistol w/ SB15 arm brace on an open forum.Quote:

I am at the Buffalo Creek Shooting area almost every weekend if you want to try it out sometime before you commit.
Have you used this load with the surplus M80 147s? ...which projectile do you use?Quote:

I haven't picked up any heavy bullets yet for subsonics, but I have four pounds of AA1680.
I have another 300 rifle build in process with the Mag Tactical lower and 16" barrel.
With good reason. ROFLQuote:

I am stocking up on AA1680 and I will be working up subsonics. Although, I need to get my form 1 done for my suppressor. Until then, I am just going to have fun with the ammo that I can load cheaply.Quote:

I also have old standard capacity magazines for 5.56, which wont load 6.8, 6.5, etc. 300 Blackout in supersonic is an obvious choice.Quote:

To each their own. It's not like you build anything shady or questionable. In fact, if you go to Sig's website you will see they offer quite a few pistols from the factory with the brace already installed.Quote:
