Do you still have your rifles?
I 100% agree...
The only reason to be running a blackout 300 is for suppressed, subsonic fire...
Hell, if you're running suppressed just for hearing protection, you'd probably be better off staying with supersonic .223 which when suppressed just sounds like a .22...
basically, .300 blackout is just good for tactical suppressed situations, which your average shooter will NEVER encounter...

hunting round
Jaden,
More and more states are legalizing hunting with suppressed rifles, mine just did. A friend in another state just had a .300 AR built for suppressed hunting. I have read that England only allows rifle hunting with suppressed rifles, don't know if that is true.
With the country getting more and more crowded suppressed rounds and rifles are going to be more and more in demand for hunting. A bullet can't travel much over 1000FPS without the airflow over some parts of it moving at supersonic speed. The bullets are moving at black powder speeds and black powder has one major advantage over modern powder, it will yield more consistent velocities. Perhaps we will be seeing black powder rifles with suppressors soon!

That's an interesting combination, black powder and a suppressor never thought about that
would have to come appart easily
It is a silly idea but as silly as things are getting not impossible we will see it on a hunting rifle. There is a special "primitive arms" season for a few days or so in my state. Started out muzzle loader, iron sights. Now I think about the only requirement left is it has to use black powder or the Pyrodex? pellets for the charge. Haven't shot black powder in decades myself and then it was just a cap and ball revolver. I was going to build a rifle from a kit but never got around to it.

I like the bullet cue. That is really nice.
I ran a HK USP 45 CT last weekend and it put my 1911 to shame! Everyone hating on polymer guns are fools :thumbup:
Christmas for wifey
This is what wifey got from me for Christmas.
She is wanting her CCL and wants to take a class.
It is beautiful. Smith and Wesson are geniuses as they designed specifically for women. The gun shop that I bought it said it is the fastest moving gun in his entire inventory.

That Guido cue is interesting to say the least.
By the way, I am looking for a nice O/U for trap and skeet shooting in the 1-2k value range. If any one wants to trade for cues, let me know. I'm in the California Bay Area, can go through any FFL around here. Also on Calguns.net just shoot me a PM

the ladies in red
I don't think I posted this old picture. Not much of a picture of the guns but the only one I have found, was looking for something else when I stumbled on this. The two red rifles were mine, normally used for benchrest competition but it was pretty easy to reach out and touch someone at over 500 yards with them too. I called them my ladies in red in the hope they wouldn't act like bltches when it came time to compete!
Oddly enough the accurized colt commander in the back is a varmint gun too. After I showed a friend that it was a tack driver itself inside fifty yards we had some fun with it. It was very funny watching him walk through a prairie dog town like it was an FBI Hogan's alley.
Good times from long ago!

You need a suppressor that can easily break down then...
I know that you know this, but black powder is really dirty, so if you're suppressing a black powder rifle, be prepared to be breaking down and cleaning that suppressor fairly often, you might get away with soaking it in solvent with suppressors that don't easily break down.
Jaden.
Personally I prefer to get a form one and build my own suppressor. I even considered starting a movie sounds company so I could get a class 3 manufacturers permit in Nazifornia...
edit: I see that in a reply of yours that you stated that it would need to break down...lol,. I knew you knew that...
