Anyone know if there's any stock of .300 blackout factory ammo anywhere and how much?

Cheers

I can't say I've ever seen it advertised - maybe just load your own?

I generally do but having a few issues with grouping so I want to start afresh using factory ammo then reload those cases and see how they stand up.

That's a WHOLE different problem. ain't it!
Go back to basics (sorry, not wishing to sound like a smart arse)

When I get a new, to me, gun I like to put 50-100 factory rounds through it just to give me a benchmark for its performance also you get nice fireformed once fired brass.

How ever in this case I wish you luck in sourcing factory ammunition for the 300 Blackout, Hornady make it so a call to Hannams could be worth a try.

Ive not found any yet in the 6 months or so ive had mine. 18gr of h110 under a 110vmax in either lapua or converted ggg brass works well for me.

Thanks, want to get a group at 25 to start off with. Do you have any cases (have to be .300 and not converted) this would at least give me a start.

I have found I get the most consistent reloads using .221FB brass necked up, the .223 cut down always needed a lot more work to get the neck tension/thickness consistent.

Have you trued RUAG, I have a feeling they manufacture .300 Blackout.

I know that Gun_Tec in Shobdon Leominster had factory .300BLK ammo in stock a few weeks ago. The guys who run it are big BLK shooters.
