Finally! I was waiting for you to snatch up one of these. A.A is without a doubt one of the best, but underrated gun channels on KZbin!!!

[@ceoelektronika8604]

Nice for using in the woods when you don't want to scare every single animal in a 10 mile radius.

[@hghunter44]

If you are going to deer hunt with any subsonic load, you need to remember it will be just like bow hunting, but with a rifle. The round won't kill a deer through energy transfer, but through blood loss, just like a broad head. Make sure to choose the right bullet as bullets meant for other .338 cartridges won't expand.

[@jamesbrischke4815]

True. Check out 8.6 rounds made by Gorilla and Discreet. (not misspelled)

[@jefferyharper5720]

They have expanding 8.6. The extra spin creates a corkscrew pattern like no other.

[@kevmoful]

I like retro ar builds, I like old black powder rifles , but I never thought of bringing volley fire back into vogue.

[@calebdoner]

I love watching Alabama Arsenal. Always reminds me how poor I am.

[@kodywoodward]

That's awesome! I'm loving my 8.6blk but I haven't stretched it out that far. That's amazing how loud it was at 750.

[@ancientrenegade9243]

That is almost identical style setup to my .416 subsonic rig even down to the scope mount. Mine is cut down 7mm re mag brass necked to .416 if I ever build another one I'll swap to cut down 300prc brass as it should be big enough to get a .50 in.

[@iowa_lot_to_travel9471]

The bing bang in a really fun video. Blackout is the most intriguing and awesome cartridge. Expensive but fun to watch. Thanks. It was a who tee whoot 🦉😅😅

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Thanks for watching!

[@FredrickVanHook]

I have a 338 Spectre would love too see more on this round. Built on an AR-15 platform and uses 10mm brass. Less expensive gun and less expensive to load.

[@joelmcmahan7386]

That’s a super nice setup, this a caliber I’ve not seen in person yet. Thanks to AA and WTW for sharing this boo lot slinger with us all. Good shooting and gods speed to both men’s family and channels. 💪🏽🎥💯👍🙏🏻

[@nikos6220]

Nice proof of concept I find that cartridge so damn cool that I am still after months searching for a reason to use it 😂 Best I came up with is that I really want this in my 16 inch MDRX. Or any AR-10 pattern SBR. On bolt guns… maybe in situations where you are really space constrained?

[@jamesbrischke4815]

Your second line...or any AR-10 pattern SBR. Yup, that's the one. The one with the 12.5" barrel. Gonna be my feral hog harvester.

[@patthis]

Cool set up, will be interesting to see how far out this will be effective on a deer? ...thanks for the video!

[@ericpettyfishing]

That rifle is really sweet. I am late and just now learning about 8.6blk, I love my 300 blk. Some real nice shooting in this video.

[@jamesbrischke4815]

There is a 1:5 twist rate available now for the 300 BO. The higher rotational energy is bound to take the 300 BO up another level.

[@jamesbrischke4815]

Waiting for the last of my build parts to arrive! I have fifty rounds each of sub and supersonic rounds loaded and ready to go.

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Hey Ron

[@slightenigma]

I would love to see a side by side 8.6 vs 300 blk out

[@RockinRack]

Definitely interesting but I personally cant think of any use for it. Got over subsonic stuff pretty quick with the 300bo craze. Its fun but I dont need to be quiet where I hunt and a can makes supersonic hearing safe on a lot of bolt guns. My 6.5 and 308 are both about as quite to my ear as my 300bo subsonic.

[@kcv5716]

What does the clay blockhead think about 8.6?

[@JarenMeans]

Very. Nice. I have taken my 8.6 out to 200 with my homemade boolots. Using the same 285 ELD-M. Cant wait to take it out further! It is quiet!

[@JarenMeans]

@@TacticalBuffoonary around $1.10 a round with the powder I am using and converted 6.5CM Hornady cases. Not cheap. I picked up some pulled 285gr Hornady for a lot cheaper the other day so that drops the cost down quite a bit when using those ones with used brass.

[@dannydyer9961]

You can always put a Charlie on your scope to get the elevation you need if your adjustable base dosent move enough.

[@TheWVgoodguy22]

Pretty impressive considering the speed of the projectile and the fact that the barrel ends up at the front of the foregrip.

[@charlesmorgan1879]

All that with a shorty barrel, very nice !

brother Rossi has chambered that little lwc like your 350 L in 8.6 you need to find one of those to try for us .

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Last I checked they took the 8.6 off their website and have not made any yet

[@wintonhudelson2252]

Thinking about 8.6 on an AR10 platform....

[@moccwfirearmstrainingdenni3540]

Do you know how many foot pounds of energy hit at 750 years. Most always compare to the 45ACP as killing power.

[@AdventureswithaaronB]

I wonder if these blackout cartridges are the future. Basically a big caliber bullet in a smaller case necked up. Wonder if I could get an 8 mm Mauser bullet into a 65 Creedmoor cartridge. Does anyone know if that would work?

[@ryanharris6045]

I don't know why not.

Where can I buy a build like this?

[@wesleyturner1979]

Does it need the same Launch angle as a 150lb major league hitter to go yard? Does it hit like a cotton ball on a block wall at 750?

[@mattandrews8528]

I still feel like for cost and ease that .308 and .300blk is all I need to get the job done.

[@WHOTEEWHO]

[@chetperry9283]

Very cool and QUIET! Surprised this has not replaced 300 AAC for special ops given extension of range possibilities. Could you get a FAXON 14" barrel and pin and weld a suppressor to avoid the SBR designation? Might increase accuracy as well.

[@jamesbrischke4815]

This round is brand new. It doesn't even have SAAMI specs yet. It's also an AR10 platform vs. AR15, so there's the weight of the firearm and wt and bulk per rd. of ammo to consider. 5.56 case w/ up to 220 gr. vs. 6.5CM case w/ up to 300 gr. projectile.(subsonic)

[@jamesbrischke4815]

So far, Faxon only makes three lengths, the longer two being 12.5" and 16".

[@JB-dw2gw]

It is a great round out to 200 yards

[@tabcreedence6553]

Subsonic artillery! Nice shooting

[@Daniel7.62]

I still haven’t figured out what the purpose of the 6.8 BO is. It seems like the 1-3 twist is a little finicky to shoot. I love the fact that there are new firearms coming out all the time but what was the purpose of the 6.8 BO ?

[@WHOTEEWHO]

I don't have the best answer for you. Yet

Yeah I'm not sure about this round. Seems to be some novelty that give it a year and it will be gone. In reality i would choose a 308. 308 is readily available. For the same cost you can streach a 308 out to 1,200 yards with more energy on target.

[@AbstractPragmatism]

I'm definitely pumped about this round, but I'm going to need to wait a while to get a rifle chambered in it; probably not until it gets accepted by SAAMI. If I can't get ammo for it regularly, it turns into a paperweight, you know? When it does get approved, I'll be all over it. Still really cool to see you stretching it out, though!

At 750 yards it’s basically a 45Degree angle rainbow shot.

[@quintonmartin5507]

Fantastic

[@kenpickett9317]

Played with my .300blk many times with subs. The trajectory is so poor with these slow loads that unless you know the exact ranges that you’re shooting over, it’s pretty much impossible to judge how much holdover you need. and therefore almost impossible to hit anything accurately. Good fun at the range, but not so much use in the field.

[@jamesbrischke4815]

Although not near as quiet, you can always move to supersonic rounds. The versatility of the round isn't only found in subsonic. Same with the 8.6.
