I purchesed a AR15 in 300 blackout last night and got what I think is a great deal. But anyways I'm looking for Ammo for it. I might make this gun for my wife and also suppress it whenever that gets here. I'm looking for good hunting Ammo. I know I can buy FMJ all day from Walmart and academy. Just trying to find the good hunting stuff.
Thankd

If you want the best, buy from Chad (Custom Reloads of Dallas). He is a member on the forum and makes fantastic ammo that is far more consistent than the stuff you'll find at Wal-Mart and academy. He's also a big fan of the 300BLK, IIRC.

Thanks guys. I bid and won a Complete AR with Anderson lower for $439. It was a buy now price of $789 with no reserve. I think I did good on the purchase. I'll give Chad a call.

I hunt pigs with my .300 BO and have no complaints. Use Barnes 110 Tac Tx or 125 grain Hornady SSTs.

Wow, thank you, guys!
The 300 blk out for hunting works best with 125 grain bullets. Perfect mushroomed shaped expansion and good penetration. The 110 V-max is decent, and the 110 Barnes will penetrate very well. I also shoot A LOT of the 115 Berger's.
