300BLK upper arriving tomorrow, going to grab some dies and brass today and try some sub- and supersonic loads. Any recommendations for bullets for each of these? Something middle of the road in performance/accuracy? Just want to get a baseline with it before I go into the experimentation phase... Primary use will be on hogs and coyotes.

edit - upper is 16", pistol length gas system.

thanks!

125 grain hunting bullets for hunting. 110 V-max for yotes. Any bullet that's heavy for subs. You'll be GTG.

I've been a big fan of Nosler 125gr Ballistic Tips, I like 'em cuz they're green clap


But seriously, they've been devastating on deer & hogs. I haven't had a chance to try it out on coyotes yet.

I sighted the rifle in at 150 yards, longest shot with it so far has been about 180 yards on a hog. Shoulder shot, made it about 10' and laid down.


I will fear no evil, for thou art with me.

I'm using 130gr Speer bullets and lilgun for hogs. Not doing anything sub and not saving pelts if yotes come out.
