Why is everyone ditching the 300 BO

[41mag]

I wonder if i can find a bbl for a G1 contender??

I do like the fact that the 300 BO barrel length only needs to be 9” to burn all the powder.

Is this true for all powders or factory ammo?

From my understanding yes on both.

Heck, i saw 3 AR’s in 5.56/.223 in the last 15mins that were $500 or less

I left it because the super sonic round under preformed compared to other super sonic rifle rounds 7.62x39, 6.8SPC, 6.5 Grendel, 300 Ham'r and a couple of others.

And why pay for sub sonic 300 Blk and a suppressor with all these nice 45acp, 9mm, 40sw, even 10mm carbines out today which are mostly more affordable and preform the same and are pretty easy to suppress.

If you only have a .30cal supressor like me then you need BO. I never wanted/needed the caliber until I got my suppressor, but man those subsonics are awesome. Maybe once I get a .45 cal can I won’t care for it anymore?

Also, it makes some sense if you are already invested in 5.56, all you need is a new upper.

Penetration is questionable with 300BO, but a long skinny 200gr 30cal bullet is going to penetrate deeper into an animal than a short fat pistol round of the same weight and velocity. For hunting suppressed I would pick 300BO over any of the pistol rounds.

I’m still liking 300BO. I think most folks without a suppressor get into it just because of the novelty, and it looks like a nasty round, then they find it too expensive to shoot regularly.

Palmetto state always has good deals. Several other companies also.
