A while back I bought an upper chambered in 300 BO. It was kinda on a whim but since bolts and mags are compatible with standard AR's I thought, why not. I bought 1 50 Rd box of magtech 123 gr fmjs and figured I might just throw on a trs25 and co witness it.
I've really had a blast running cheap steel cased fodder through a 7.62x39 upper but it's not a gun I'd bet my life on. It's super finicky about magazines and only fired 100% when I installed an enhanced firing pin.
All that perked my interest in the 300. Not necessarily the steel cased options so much as having a more reliable version of a 30 Cal AR. With no desire to scale up to an AR 10, it seemed like the obvious choice.
Anyhow, I certainly don't expect it to outshoot my white oak or BA 223s but I'm curious what it is capable of. What have ya'll had your best luck with? I'm not really looking to run it suppressed but I'd shoot subsonics if they are significantly more accurate.
Eventually I may even reload for it but that may be a little ways down the road.
