[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Reloading 300 Blackout

Posted: 11/22/2013 4:04:18 PM EDT

I am reloading some 300 blackout, usually I load Hornady A-Max bullets but I am looking for something a little cheaper, and ideas?? Anyone use 30 cal carbine round nose bullets? do they feed well in an AR?
Thanks

147 gr mil pull downs. Several sites to buy them and can be had for around 150 per 1,000. Not the most accurate but great for plinking.

I use these for plinker rounds too. They're good for about 2 moa.

Thanks - When I searched the internet I found two types, machine pulled and hand pulled, which is best??

Machine pulled will have less marks usually so you can squeeze a little more accuracy out of them, but they aren't match bullets and aren't going to be sub moa rounds, so go with whichever is cheaper which is usually hand pulled.

Can someone point me to the sites that are selling these?

Thanks
