Ouch, this going to be an expensive test LOL. Even after the 25% off it'll be a tad over $1300 just to finish the gun, not including brass and dies. LOL. I wouldn't do it. All these gap AR rounds are about the same anyway. You can't change the laws of physics. LRoyal may not see a big difference when comparing the BLK to the HAM'R in a 8", but we've proven over and over there is a huge difference if 16" or longer barrels. Often 400fps+ I've been doing a bit of research on the H110 and have found that for every grain of powder you get around a 70FPS increase. I'm not sure how much more case capacity the HAM'R has over the BLK, but I just ran the numbers with it being 1gr more. From the numbers I ran it beats the Blackout in every category but in such short of a barrel the differences are negligible for me to invest in since I'm already setup for the Blackout. Like you said in the longer barrels is where it shines the most and I just like my hunting gun to be as small and compact as possible. 300BLK H110 Hornady 110VMax running 2200FPS from 8.5" barrel 300HAM'R H110 Hornady 110VMax running 2273 from 8.5" barrel

Good looking rifle and optic ! Did that bullet pass through No, he soaked up all it had. Hog was quartering so it's probably somewhere in the off shoulder. He dropped and only kicked 3-4 time and that was the end of him. I've got it on video if I get time to download and can figure out how to post it?

Just click on the box with the blue arrow pointing up right above the box you post in Bill. Or you can use the box to the right of it if you want to post the video on YouTube and link it to this post. Nice Hog!

My guys are running late so I had time to download the video of the 258# boar kill on my MAC, but I can't get it to link here? Any suggestions? I tried as pitchfork predator suggested, which is how I put up the photos, but it won't allow me to add a video.

No, I keep all my videos downloaded onto my computer and/or portable hard drive. They attach just fine to emails.

G1 is .290 on the 110 VMax according to Hornady. Ha, just went back and looked at the JBM and my settings were saved. I had .90 in there instead of .290. The HAM'R still beats the 300BLK in every category out of the 8" barrel but still by a narrow margin.

We just chrono'd a WC 8" BLK upper with the 110gr V-MAX Brown box Hornady "Custom" 2142fps average Black box Hornady "Black" 2127fps average

The 5.56 has a chamber diameter of .3553" and the HAM"R .367" just behind the shoulder. The diameter .200" in front of the bolt face is .380" on both, so you can see the HAM'R has less taper than a 5.56

I guess I fat fingered it. Only reason I caught it was because I had just looked at my drop chart for my short 243. The numbers were close.

Took this bad boy last night from 65yds, 150gr Hornady SST, DRT. The rifle is 42" long from butt to muzzle of suppressor. Actual weight on a scale 258# and he's a fat boar, not a bar. He's been raiding one of our deer protein feeders, but finally made a mistake! Here's the video of Bill HAM'Ring the boar

Why didn't you shoot the coon Bill? Nice shot and cool video.
