Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
What Happens If You Try and Shoot 300 Blackout in a 223?
"I saw this posted up on ‘the Reloading Room’ on FB today ...
this is the results of firing 300blk through a 5.56 barrel; that's a projectile stretched in the center section; the shooter was unharmed, the magazine blew out of the gun, and gun was damaged."

I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.
Wow had that not been a heavy barrel I think the shooter would've been severely injured...
Actually, it does not matter what barrel. The design of the AR15 makes it VERY hard to rupture a barrel. The blow-out type cases like described in this one typically occur with subs, like a blown Glock. With a supersonic, blown out receiver, bolt and carrier. This has happened more than a dozen times that I know of.
Dont know if anyone saw this article, but it is basically the same thing.

My EDC: Handcuffs, Bandana, and Ball Gag.
If I'm ever at a party and the cops come to arrest people. Ill blindfold myself, throw the ball gag in, handcuff my hands, and hide in a closet. Police never arrest hostages!
