Product Features
- Caliber: 300 Blackout
- Bullet Weight: 208 grains (Hornady A-Max)
- Package: 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case
- Bullet Type: A-Max – match-grade polymer tip with high ballistic coefficient (G1 BC ≈ 0.648), designed for long-range accuracy and controlled expansion
- Propellant: Specialized to minimize flash and residue, enhancing performance in shorter barrels and suppressors
Ballistic Performance
- Muzzle Velocity: Approximately 1020–1030 fps (subsonic)
- Muzzle Energy: Around 489 ft-lbs
- Effective Range: Best suited for engagements out to 100–150 yards with rapid velocity and energy drop beyond, typical for subsonic 300BLK rounds
- Trajectory (from a 16” barrel): Minimal drop at short ranges, with pronounced drop beyond 100 yards
Platform Suitability
- Designed for reliable feeding and cycling in AR-15, SBR, and other semi-auto and bolt-action rifles chambered in 300 BLK
- Known for quiet performance with suppressors, making it a favorite for tactical shooting, competition, and hunting applications requiring low signature
User and Expert Feedback
- Shooters report excellent accuracy, often describing it as the most accurate factory range load in their 300BLK setups, especially for suppressed fire.
- Reliable feeding and no malfunction issues across hundreds to thousands of rounds, per user reports.
- In hunting ballistic gel tests, expansion is limited; the round tends to penetrate deeply and sometimes exits without significant energy dump, making it less ideal for maximum expansion on game but favored for target shooting and tactical use.
- Cycling reliability can vary based on rifle setup; some users report short cycling in certain platforms, particularly with tighter gas settings or shorter barrels.
Application Suitability
- Ideal for suppressed shooting due to subsonic speed and low flash.
- Suitable for precision target, competition, and tactical use.
- Can be used for hunting medium game, though expansion may be limited compared to other bullet designs.
Hornady Black 208gr A-Max stands out for accuracy and platform versatility, especially in suppressed setups, but users seeking maximum hunting expansion may prefer alternative bullet types.
