300 blackout ammo sighting??

<< < (2/2)

Was at Cabelas in La Vista today at lunch time. they had 8 boxes of Winchester 220gr Blackout on the shelf for $19.99 per box. Did not catch the item number.

Thanks Kozball.

I called them (cabelas) this morning around 10 and the guys said they didn't have any.  I think he just put the phone down for a few mins.  Then I called guns unlimited and the guy at the counter said he never heard of 300 blackout so they wouldn't have it in stock.

bkoenig,
Thanks for the load data.  It confirms a lot of what I've been getting on line for info for the 147gr bullets.  When I get to reloading it I will drop a grain and start from there.  Taken any game with your vmax yet?

bkoenig:
Not yet.  I've heard conflicting info about the vmax for white tail, but for the most part it seems it works ok at the blackout's velocities.

maanbr:
Yeah that was my initial thought when I saw your bullet choice but at 2000fps it may not explode like they do at .308 or '06 velocities.  I think the 125gr Nosler ballistic tip would be right up a deer size alley within 150 yards.

If you want reasonable prices, check out Cheaper Than Dirt Ammo online.  They have pretty good deals and a wide selection in .300 AAC Blackout......
