With the 190s being harder to come by than varget, it would be interesting if the 175s could work. I’ve looked around online but not much out there for this.

It’s well known in the air gun and .22 rim fire world that round nose slugs are inherently more accurate than points at subsonic speeds, so I’m always excited when you do a 300 blackout vid with a round nose slug! I’m hoping it proves out at 100 yards.

My only issue is the testing distance for gel is always point blank. 10 feet is less than 10 yards. Most game even in archery hunting are taken at 15-25 yards or more. With .300 BLK sub I'd say maximum range of 50 yards. I'd like to see gel tests at those ranges so we can figure a maximum and minimum range.

I have used the Hornady factory load for the 190 Sub-X for hogs and deer. My longest shot has been 52 yards. I get consistent nickel size exit wounds from broad side shots. All animals were down within 30 yards. The solid copper bullets do expand larger, however I get far less penetration with no exit on broad side shots. The animals also take much longer to go down. 50 to 100 yards. That's why I stick with Hornady Sub-X. It may also be noted that the Hornady load is the only 300 Blackout factory load that meets the F.B.I. performance requirements.

One of the uses I have for the SUB-X is a 50 yard load for my AR Pistol (and eventually a short-barrel rifle I'm building). Having a loading that would hit a quarter at 50 yards has a lot of value, especially with AA1680 (considering how much I own of it for just that reason).

I probably would hold these rounds to 50-60 yards for hunting, but the platinum-tier accuracy of the Sub-X loads is still a huge plus, because it will allow for precise shot placement, which matters when your hunting bullet hits at 980 fps

My factory Daniel defense 1 in 8 twist 10.3 inch rig shoots heavy subs just as well as my Q Honey Badger. I like them both but is the HB $1000 more gun than the DD? Absolutely not. I’d say $200-$300 more because I understand that they are lighter and that requires engineering but 50 percent more? Hell no. I love my Q guns and silencers but once you shoot them side by side there is no way someone can tell me the HB is 50 percent better. If it weighed half as much or magically had more velocity with a shorter barrel or perhaps was a sub moa gun all day no matter the rounds then ok. It however doesn’t do any of those. It weighs 26 percent less, is just a tiny bit more accurate (which for a CQB/pig gun isn’t a big deal) it also shoots supers slower and has proprietary replacement parts if something breaks. Which I don’t anticipate happening because its a quality gun but still…Good gun but not an epic gun. If i had to pick, id take the HB and sell my DD but only because it’s a little shorter and suits my needs as a home defense/car gun better, not because it necessarily is a better gun.

Has anyone shared my experience with the edge of the bullet tip catching in the barrel extension and causing a FTF? I’ve tried COAL’s from 2.045 - 2.175. Same issue. Seems that the tip catches and the bolt loses its grip on the case head, and closed on a the round while the tip remains stuck in the barrel extension. I have clear marks on the case heads where the bolt comes back and grabs the next round. I’ve increased powder to rule out under-gas. No issues with any other bullets I’ve used. Wilson Combat barrel. Aero bolt.

I have just been building my first 300BLK SBR and prepping to load, first 300BLK loading. I came across Maker REX bullets and Sub-X and been trying to decide between them for starting place. Thanks so much for the great coverage here helping me decide to go with Maker! Also, as an ELD-X and ELD-M shooter those penetrating right thru were a shock at those velocities. Guess I have assumed better performance of those opening somewhat like other OTM bullets and the velocity just wont do it. Very good to lnow as I was thinking about ELD or GMX instead of Maker also.

You shot a sub MOA 10 shot group at your target velocity with the Sub-X. I am not sure you need any more load development in 300 BO. If you want to hunt with that bullet, that is your load. Hornady has 220 Grain load data for a round nosed 220 bullet in 308. That might be an interesting use of the Sub-x.

You don’t want to seat the SUB-X too shallow, because they don’t feed well in regular magazines. The temptation is to pull them out, but you really want to push them in far enough to get it up to the cantilever for “production” rounds.

I’ve been using the 190 sub-x on deer out to 100 yards for 3 seasons now. I use accurate 1680 and run them right at 1050. They are absolutely the best bullet I’ve found for whitetail out of my 300 black. I tried supers with the 110 Barnes tac-tx and wasn’t getting reliable expansion. With the sub-x I’ve shot close to 10 whitetails, 2 150 plus pound bucks and none of the deer shot have went over 20 yards, most are DRT. As you’ve shown the sub-x performs like a nosler partition. Full frontal mushroom with a solid base driving deep. I’ve only recovered 1 bullet but it looked identical to the ones you shot through the gel. The recovered bullet was from a doe I shot head on in the center of the chest, the bullet traversed the entire length of her body and lodged in the far side of her back ham, maybe an 1” from exiting the rear of the deers ham. To say I was impressed was an understatement. I’ve now loaded over 700 sub-x’s and will hopefully have deer bullets for years to come.

He has a prep center. Well had. He hasn't used it lately. I think it's the Frankford Arsenal version.

He does have the Frankford Arsenal Case prep center. I think he doesn't use it much on video, cause it sounds annoying on video.

@JohnnysReloadingBench thanks for all the info. I've watched all your 300 BLK videos over the last year of getting into reloading. In your opinion which powder is the better option for 300 BLK subs? CFE BLK, 1680, or N120? I've used a good bit of CFE and 1680 but I've read that the N120 burns much clearer. What is your opinion?

I gave up trying to depend on a subsonic body shot dependable setup out of 300. It’s great for head shots no matter. But just cheap berrys 220’s will do the same thing. Body shots though? Just not for 300. Or any slow spitzer. I’d settle on something else. 458, etc. go wide for slow instead. I settled on Speer 130 varmints with v110. The sub stuff out of a true rifle bullet is just for fun like I said so meh just gave up. There’s better options.

Johnny, Using Li' Gun, I've worked down to a "max subsonic" load (~1070fps) in my 8.5" barrel and got comparable results in my 10% cleargel. I've also worked up to a "max" load in my 16" bbl, slightly over 1600fps. Spoke with the nice folks at Hornady and was told they haven't tested terminal performance over 1400fps. with them. Seeing what they'd do over 2k into gel should be entertaining. I haven't gotten around to gel testing my "max load" Once thing, for safety. I was taught, when working on developing a subsonic load, it's safer to start supersonic and working DOWN to your target velocity. You're normally not worried about being over-pressure with subsonic loads, and you're less likely to stick a bullet in the bore that way. I'd hate to see you have to do a video titled, "How to remove a stuck bullet from a 300BO bbl" 😉

Dunno if it's a taboo topic, but Hornady loads the Sub-X in factory ammo. Cabela's has it in stock online & on shelves. Curious how the factory loads fare vs. your loads.

It was an idea. But let’s be honest. A 45 acp 185 vs these 190’s… Is already going as fast, already as wide, already does better than a sub 300 when it comes to body shot ability. I feel like sub 300 is for fun, but wider heavier has always been better at the slow game.

20 Yards? Your groups are terrible, at that distance you should be getting < 1 MOA. Can't believe your are happy with that.

I've loaded supers with barnes 120gr. Tac-TX with 20gr. Of Accurate 11FS and was getting great accuracy and fps from a 16" bolt action 2405 fps with SD of 6 and sub MOA!!! Great powder! I wonder what velocities I'd get out of my 12.5" postol?🤔

I know this is a year after the video. Can someone give some advice for a brand of ammo to buy that is subsonic, 300blk, 8” barrel, suppressed that is good for sound and home defense?

When using a bullet seating die with taper crimp, can you separate out those two functions? Maybe adjust die depth to avoid crimping while bullet seating then come back with the bullet seating stem screwed way out but with the die adjusted for crimping? So bullet seating first then crimping on the second run. Any reason that wouldn't work?

I’m a big fan of the 190 grain Makers T-Rex bullets in my CQB weapon as it is equipped with a 1:8 twist 8” barrel at this moment but I’d like to install a faster twist barrel for use with with Makers 220 grain T-Rex bullets.
