Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Boduke0220: I was mostly trolling haha. Do you happen to know who makes those 300BLK Marked Magazines that were in inferior rifles YT vids? This will be my first 300BLK gun and im deathly paranoid of mixing Ammo lol A few companies make rubber bands you can wrap them around the mag and they come in different colors and state the caliber. I only put them on my .300, simple and cheap. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By officerX: Several have mentioned previously that it is an H3. I'm currently running an H2 but don't have my suppressor yet, so that may change. You wont need it in a .300blk. I ran an H1 / springco white fine. Super smooth. Some folks are of the belief that mo buffer mo better but I am not necessarily one of those people. |

It's S&B's take on that barnes bullet from what I can tell. I bought half a case to test out recently, haven't shot it yet. Would be interesting to see a side by side. New generation lead free bullets Modern, highly efficient design incorporating a boat-tail base with a new, pointed tip for a flat trajectory and maximum retained energy. Blue plastic tip enhances expansion at all ranges while the solid copper construction maximizes weight retention. |

Does anybody see a better way I should lay this out before I start cutting? Should I not make cutouts for the mags and just let the pressure of the closed case hold them in place?

The pics that we have seen with the AAC can date back to 2019 or 2020. Figured it was probably during a transition period. But that was just how I rationalized it. |

The only things different that I run is the BRT 0.069” gas tube and Geissele 42 H2; shoots real soft suppressed and will cycle just fine unsuppressed. |

Not so much a sandman issue, but more of an incompatibility of one type of ammo causing some baffle/endcap strikes.
Went back to using the old AAC 2k's for now. That's what I saw some DG guys running last week. |

Went back to using the old AAC 2k's for now. That's what I saw some DG guys running last week. Wouldn't choking the round to a tighter exit diameter exacerbate the issue? (Unless the Sandman's were equipped with 556 end caps.) Not doubting you, just getting context. Like mentioned before. I too, was under the impression the AAC usage was more of a inventory management thing. "Hey we already have these 556 specific cans in inventory, lets use them on our 556 uppers" |

I'm just telling what I saw and the explanation. I was very surprised at seeing them on their rifles. They were complaining about the 3 prong flash hider and that's when I noticed the 51 tooth attachment and realized they were running AAC. I asked why and that was the explanation. For whatever reason, the sandman caused some issues, the AAC hasn't. This issue was only with one type of ammo.
