300 Blackout - testers needed for new bullet


Recommended Posts

We are getting closer and closer to my 300 Blackout bullet to becoming a reality but I need some help. It is a 265+ grain bullet (depending on alloy) that I designed to feed in an AR15. It is the heaviest bullet that was designed specifically for the 300 Blackout. Everything about this bullet is optimized for the 300 Blackout. The case capacity, specifically how much was left for the powder after the bullet is seated, is optimized for the powders typically used in the 300 Blackout. That is because we all know that case fill and powder position can affect accuracy. So this bullet was designed to give the optimal space so your powders will not only burn more completely but also more consistently. It is that consistency that leads to accuracy. The nose profile is optimized for feeding in an AR 15 but care was also taken to make this bullet accurate in a widest variety of chambers possible. Because it was designed specifically for the 300 Blackout is also very forgiving when working up loads. Even without load development we are seeing positive results and those results will only get better as people use the bullet. Consistent 1.5 MOA groups using this cast bullet without ANY load development is what is being reported by some of my current testers. Those groups will shrink once we get into the load development phase of testing.

I have several years in the project and we are really close to going into production but I am wanting to get more test data first.

I am looking for some more people who want to try out these bullets.

If anyone is interested please contact me. Prefer someone who is experienced at casting as I will send them one of the prototype molds to cast with. When these go into production I will also be looking for more people to test the production bullet. Those interested in testing the production bullets do not need experience in casting.

I will submit another post when we are ready for people to test the production bullets.
