New Toy

Godsgunman · May 1, 2018

Just picked me up a new toy. Anderson AR in 300 blackout with Voodoo Innovations 16 '' barrel. Haven't shot her yet but will give a report when I get the chance. I am most likely going to be reloading so my question is more towards that aspect at this point. I have a Lee reloader so will be using Lee dies. Is there anything needed over the basic 300 die set? What powders seem to be the best for both super and subsonic or do you use different for each? My use will mainly be supersonic. Thanks for your knowledge and input! Here's a few pics.

For supersonic ammo I use h110, if all goes well I will be trying some subsonic loads this weekend.

Mine did best with H110 in supersonic. 19 grains with a 125 for me. Work up for your combo, thats a max book load. I shot a few subsonic loads but they are still really loud with no suppressor so I put that off till I get a suppressor.

Do you buy specific 300 brass or resize and neck 223 brass? Will basic Lee die set do that or is there an extra die to buy? I've reloaded .357 and .38 spl which is super simple. So just wondering, thanks

Sorry to see that you bought a .300 Blackout. I'm convinced that it is an addictive cartridge. It should be sold with a warning label: "Induces Grins; May Be Habit-forming". It's too late for me. Maybe you'll fare better.

I've used cut down and resized brass, and Ive used blackout headstamp too. Best accuracy was pmc cut down brass

I took the worst of my mixed 223 and 5.56 brass, ran it through the sizing die, and trimmed it down. The only thing I can think of you might want is a universal expanding die if you plan to load cast bullets for subsonic loads.
