Range Report - 300BLK Comparing 2400 & Shooters World Heavy Pistol With Lee 312155 And Fiocchi SRMP

Testing our 300blk loads

[@K24-d4d]

Good stuff, dude bro's been using your pointer for a toothpick!

[@DummyRound]

😆

[@jfox1078]

It would be really interesting to see the chronograph data while using 2400. Maybe a part 3 of this video?!

[@DummyRound]

Whenever I finally get one I will have to do a p3 for pretty much every video I've made, should be cool.

[@T.A.B.Videos]

Saw your comment on SmashTime yesterday, thanks

[@DummyRound]

Yeah buddy! I like your stuff👍🇺🇸👊

[@Thorsaxe777]

Big Dummy.. hey dude, I haven't tried the "Shooters World" powder as of yet, I have been watching on KZbin and have been seeing good results from crafters that have. On a different subject, 2400 has been and will be a staple powder on my bench along with some other tried and true powders. I mainly used 2400 for silhouette handgun, however, I have used it in reduced cast bullet rifle rounds with "rolling the dice" results from one load to the other. there is an acceptance we all face as crafters, we have a need to try different powders and bullet combinations to scratch that spot that itches so to speak. anyway. (Just me) I would drop the "If you made it all the way through the video". The people that watch your channel will always watch it all the way through. just like Fortuncookie, Uncle Jim, Johnny's reloading bench, Elvis Ammo, and a host of others. we are all different and it is You mostly, the results you got, the method of madness you used, the materials you used, and how you crafted it. In my opinion, people can make a video too short. So,,, keep up the good work-Dave

[@DummyRound]

Hey Dave. I've been enjoying the couple of SW Powders I've tried thus far. When I eventually get a chronograph I'll have to retest everything and see how the velocity compared to what GRT suggests and what kind of SD/ES information we can gather. Thanks for the advice👍🇺🇸👊

[@HobbiesHobo]

It's worse when one of your own friends does that crap. One of mine put a shotgun blast through a target I had just tested 9 different .22 ammo brands on, to make things worse, he wasn't pattern testing, he was just seeing how the recoil was.

[@DummyRound]

Now that would make me pissy! He couldn't "test the recoil" into the berm or anything other than your nice and organized target? I bet the shot was a similar size to your 22 cal holes so it would have been hard to tell the difference. That, or it just blew a hole through the entire target lol

[@ToolsandTargets]

Good stuff, I love me some .300blk. I don't reload yet, but this is the one caliber that I never leave the brass on the ground from.😎

[@DummyRound]

Thank ya sir - I love 300blk as well! This gun has never seen a factory piece of ammo. You could probably fund an entire reloading set up just by picking up brass and selling it on local groups and pages, or trade it for components. It seems like a lot to get started, but if you pick up some tools here, or die set there, you'll be on your way in no time!👊🇺🇸👍

[@ToolsandTargets]

@@DummyRound I know you're right. I need to just quit talkin about doin it and do it. My main concern is getting powder and primers honestly right now. I've actually got 1000 large rifle primers which is what I would have the least uses for as far as what I shoot, but that's all I've been able to find locally in months. I hate the thought of what it would cost me to order the stuff online.😆

[@DummyRound]

@@ToolsandTargets the primers are definitely the missing piece of the puzzle these days, powder has been pretty available for the most part. Local is going to be the best way to find stuff, unless you can find a place that allows a 5k order of primers, that way the hazmat doesn't hurt do much. Same with powder, if you can get 5+lbs or an 8lb jug then the hazmat isn't quite as bad. The sites that are limiting your quantities are where it really hurts. $60 for 1k isn't a great price, but add $30 for hazmat and actual shipping costs and you're at 10c per primer - not exactly shooting for cheap, but perhaps still cheaper than factory. You could start collecting the other gear/tools while you keep an eye out for components.

[@ToolsandTargets]

@@DummyRound Yeah that's a good idea. If I can stop buying guns lone enough, I can get the gear for sure. Walked out of Rural King today with a hold on two more pistols I gotta pick up on thursday!😆

[@DummyRound]

That's a good excuse, I'll let it pass this time

[@chuckfinley3152]

I did chrony work yesterday and SW blackout is leaving powder zombies in the barrel and case at 15gr with the 155's, I did the 230's with 700x, extremely quiet, like loud air rifle quiet, I'll send your presents today or tomorrow

[@DummyRound]

I've heard the SW Blackout is dirty, my buddy had to over crimp to get proper gas seal for his subs with the 309 230s.

[@jamespollard1670]

12.5 of 2400 and the Lee 155 is one of my pet loads . It is very accurate in my 300 .

[@DummyRound]

Awesome, maybe I'll back down a bit and try that. Thanks James 👊🇺🇸👍

[@mckwilly]

awesome stuff....silly Dude Bros...

[@DummyRound]

They're starting to come out with their stimulus ammo. At least some of them bought brass cases for me to pick up 🤣

[@mckwilly]

@@DummyRound 🤣

[@jtkrpm1]

12g of 2400 and 150gr hornady's was 1650 from my mini 14

[@DummyRound]

That makes sense, compared to my 10.5" barrel. Thanks for watching 👊🇺🇸👍

[@Jerry-dk8se]

13.0gr of 2400 in 300blk? I just loaded up a bunch of 357 with 2400, and I believe my lightest charge around that. 😂🤣 But I'm building full power 357s. That video next week. Listen to J. Pollard's advice on a little lighter charge of 2400. I gain a LOT of velocity between pistol and rifle, when shooting the same charge. Hopefully you'll get a chronograph from the Easter Bunny, then you won't be guessing? 😉 Good stuff D.R. 2400 is one of my favorite powders.

[@DummyRound]

Thanks Jerry! I'm going to load up some a little lighter and give those a shot. I don't need anything super fast, this is just my steel target plinking round. So, as long as I still have function and accuracy I will be happy! Can't wait to see your 357 project👊🇺🇸👍

[@Jerry-dk8se]

@@DummyRound 357 is an ongoing project, with my GP100 and Henry Big Boy X rifle.

[@DummyRound]

That sounds fun. Different loads for both , or one load to rule them all?

[@Jerry-dk8se]

@@DummyRound i loaded some "rifle" loads yesterday (video next week), and I'll shoot them in both rifle and pistol, to show the differences in velocities. I've just been waiting for a good weather day to get out to the range. Seems every time I have a day off, the weather doesn't cooperate. Hopefully next week I'll get the chronograph and water jugs out for testing?

[@DummyRound]

Weather was keeping me inside last week as well. I'd like to see the comparison between the two barrel lengths. Should be a fun test.

[@jeffgreer6983]

I had some dude bro's over the weekend myself.

[@DummyRound]

They got their stimulus monies and probably blew it on a brick of ammo lol

[@chris3383]

# 9 is right in that ball park too !! # 9 ,2400 , and H110 are my go to powders for magnums i know 300blk out isnt but ...

[@DummyRound]

I love me some H110, and I think the SW Heavy Pistol is supposed to be their copy of #9. Maybe one day I'll compare the two and see what happens. Thanks Chris👍🇺🇸👊

[@chris3383]

@@DummyRound I definitely want to try the SW heavy pistol

[@DummyRound]

@@chris3383 it's really cheap if you can find it lol

[@rolliskarvellis6254]

2400 may not be the cheapest, but it is so great you will start putting it on your Cheerios. 😁

[@DummyRound]

Haha ya I'm starting to like it

[@ThecrazyScotsman]

2400 is a great powder

[@DummyRound]

I'm starting to quite enjoy it 👍

[@boozeandbullets2084]

sounds like you are buying a supressor

[@DummyRound]

That would be awesome, but that whole, extortion tax and registration thing always keeps me from going for it.

[@azazelakira12]

Dude bros, sometimes I go to the range to magdump

[@DummyRound]

Haha, nothing wrong with that if you aren't shooting anybody's targets or being a nuisance. I like when they leave a big pile of brass for me to pick up!

[@azazelakira12]

@@DummyRound no, I try not to be an ahole, but sometimes is fun.

[@DummyRound]

It is definitely fun

Lol dude bros lmao

Yes sir I do lol
