he's nutn' himself you might say

he's nutting fancy... I'll see myself out

300 blk is 👑 novices don't understand

it sucks it got put against 5.56. Like thats not a good matchup.

@@LyleH-13 agreed

Where on earth do you buy your ammo?! 7.62x39 has consistently been 45-50 cents/round on ammoseek for a year and a half now whereas .300 BO has consistently been 60-70 cents/round

@@ExtremelyAverageMan I'll give you that it's been a month since really looked, but I've checked sporadically during the the last 4 or so months, and it's consistently around 5-10¢ or less what 7.62ak is. For a little while it was actually cheaper than AK. I tend to just search around for deals online from trusted distributors. Some times a drop shipper takes 3 weeks to ship it, but I get the best price, so it's cool. And I am accounting for tax and shipping too. Even with the difference in price, you're getting a much better and versatile overall round than what the AK shoots. And on a much better platform. And 300blk will give tehs some preformance out of a shorter barrel. Also, for the price of a cheap AK and 1k rounds you could get a reliable AR in 300blk and probably 2k rounds. Or the AR, 1k rounds, and accessories/optic/sling/light/etc.

It's a lot homie

Not to mention, legal protection in states that only allow hunting with 'straight wall' cartridges.

Yeah buddy!

Grendel is great. I am on Team 6ARC. I wish the Military would have chosen the ARC or the Grendel instead of the new 277!

@@jjgriffin3275 ARC is cool! R U running it as a gasser or bolt gun.

I still haven’t forgot that PSA alluded to working on 6.5 Grendel AK rifles.

@@BDKR gas

Case geometry sucks for select fire, rules out wide adoption for military.

The bolt heads are weaker

how is it quieter? isn't it more gas?

​@@FocusTrippperhaps the greater bore size gives lower muzzle pressure even though there is more gas?

@@FocusTrippI’ve always heard it sound louder in videos granted but the grand thumb vid where he is down range I think it sounds louder and definitely flies through the air louder

Self-reply. 22tcm sounds to me like a perfect pdw cartridge for systems designed 9mm. Imagine a stizon in 22tcm with a suppressor

@@PureCountryof91imagine a delayed blowback or locked breach p90 in 22tcm. That’d be sick.

I think it's more to troll people than anything. 300blk is a really good round, and probably my favorite, but I can't deny that there are many more commercially available options/loadings for 5.56. You have to get into oddball questionable hand loadings for some of the 300blk stuff. I do think it's better than AK all day, tho. That's just an inferior cartridge and platform that only got as popular as it did because they were less than dirt cheap in the 90s and early 2000s. 300 just does everything it does, better. And out of a shorter barrel.

I know gel tests aren’t everything but i consistently see 300 failing to match 7.62 in barrier penetration and damage. The versatility of 300 vs 7.62. I really wish there was more accessibility to 6.5 grendel though as that one does pique my interest.

300 is definitely not more versatile than 556 lmao

@@leeskieferrell2003 idk, I always see them preform about the same. Assuming you compare like rounds.

@@wolfgang_h3t Sure is. You can go sub to super with just a mag swap, you get the ballistics of an ak, but need less barrel to do it, you have the penetration 556 can't matching except with specialty rounds. And if you go specialty rounds, you can get the same ap308 loaded in 300 and have some really punchers. The trade off you have a 250-300m weapon platform and ammo cost more than 556.

Maybe

I could find red box 5.7 at every gun show I’ve been to, at multiple vendors. It’s not cheap but I still got some

it's been getting better.

Military veterans will fabricate the most insane stories about what they experience. They know to shoot at the “bad” guys and anything else is whatever they feel like. I remember one case where a vet argued that the m14 was a brtter platform than the FAL because it weighed less (objectively speaking, this is the opposite of reality). For every vet complaining about 5.56, theres a thousand stories of 5.56 dropping guys instantly

Military vets like myself who have used the 5.56 in live combat is the statistic. The 5.56's lack of effectiveness in Afghanistan and Iraq in many conflicts is why the M14 chambered in 7.62 was pulled out of mothball. It just depends on the terrain where the engagement is.

It’s because they suck at shooting and assume something else would have been better, or they were being engaged from longer distances. Intermediate cartridges like the 5.56 are superior for general combat because the cartridges are lightweight and magazines are high capacity, and they strike a good balance between low recoil and power. For anything within a few hundred yards people don’t expose themselves for long amounts of time. The strategy is to wound, incapacitate, and then kill. Having a lot of light recoiling rounds of adequate power is well equipped for that job. The relatively flat trajectory of 5.56 (especially when combined with an optic) can be of great value at distances reaching up to 400 yards or beyond. At about 400 yards is where full power cartridges will start to shine; especially in gpmg’s. However, if distances are consistently around 400 yards or beyond and the soldier has to navigate difficult terrain on foot a magazine fed full caliber rifle weighs substantially less than a gpmg and would make more sense.

Yeah i have heard of them having to absolutely load up Charlies with lead and they are still rocking. That would feel very scary and frustrating i can imagine... your life is on the line!

It makes the fine bro

ight

I shoot 6.5C and 6ARC, who you calling poor?

@@FocusTripp that’s fair lol but doesn’t explain the hate though.

@@vitaminme4203 So for me, I don't really find subs all that useful, though they are fun to shoot. And supers can be great for a higher energy round out of an AR15, but they still drop like a rock. 5.56 is preferable to me in almost all instances from 0-700 yards

@@FocusTripp I feel like subs can be good in situations where suppressed fire is necessary within a cqb setting. Subs do have more ballistic energy than 556 but yeah they do drop hard. Perfect for under 300 yards which is where I would see a gun fight God forbid anything would happen.

@@vitaminme4203 subs don't have the energy of 5.56 right? Supers do for sure
