Not yet, we have to make it just under 2 more years and get someone in the White House that can help Trump the major issues of this once great nation! On another hand I just feel like there s already a lot of info on this site about the 300BLK , but it is scattered around and I would like to see all this great info in an appropriate section.

So something like the SI SASS barrel would not have the same issues. I feel like DPMS is is really move there products to fit there products like RR has done. I guess we should be thankful that there are other great manufacturers to turn to.

Welcome to the forum, there is good info here and IMO some intelligent folks on here.

Is this problematic only to the DPMS SASS barrel, or is this an issue with all SASS barrels?

LOL, Yeah what he said. Thats what I was trying to get across.

Those are good points. I will be setting it up out in my building. I am fixin to run power out there and insulate and drop in a window unit for the hot days. I would also be using only spent brassfrom my rifles and bought brass. Anyone use these guys http://www.natchezss.com/index.cfm They are 20 minutes from me. Sorry Matt I am not rying to steal your thread. How much powder does it take to load 1000rds of 308 win? I am trying to figure a price on loading a 1000rds Vs buying a 1000. I know inital cost is going to take effect so I am looking at a price on a second load on the brass. Also where do you guys shop for your suppies?

A sticky in the reload section would be nice, BUT I would like to see a section for parts and just general info on this rifle. There is already from what I can tell a big and growing market for the 300BLK and in the next year it is going to double.

What is the #1 MOST important thing to remember when reloading?

Being you still use it you probably dont want to sell it. I like the idea of having to work with each step. I am Xtreamly inclined in the mechanical department, so I dont see me having an issue with the machine. My problems are going to come in just the whole reloading department as I have never been around it. I can and do have a strong ability to learn so I will get it with few pointers and some reading.......I hope anyways.

What weight is conciderd sub and super? I do plan on suppressiong the rife so maybe the pistol may be better, BUT on the other hand I would like to shoot about everything that it would chamber. Life is a trade off rom the time we are born.

Anymore thoughts on this.

We need a section dedicated to just the 300 's. To help keep information in order. JMO Ok so I am looking at CMMG website and they have a 300BLK barrel in a pistol legnth gas system and carbine legnth. What would a person benefit for the pistol gas system on a 16 inch barrel over the carbine gas system?

http://www.dillonprecision.com/#/content/p/9/pid/23594/catid/1/RL_550B I think this is the one for me to start with. What do you fellas think about it?

So give me a recomennded list of what to start with. I have nothing and would need everything to do 308,556,and the 300 for starters then I would move on the my other rifles and handguns. I also would like to get a shotgun loader in the future.

I hear ya man. I can gety it in bulk I guess the 220 grain from remington and that would at least give me some shooting and spent brass so I would have to star out right away cutting down the 556 brass.

Thanks for the post and I am doing exactly what makes me happy. I am not to worried about reloading right now. Like I said in the future I will probably be doing this. I just want to get through the 2 builds I now have started. I have plenty of rifles , shot guns , and handguns to shot if I get that board. I also have a 10-22 with no scope and can pop a Rabbit at 50 yds running all day long. Again with my RR 556 I can hit .50 MOA at a Hundred yds with factory iron sites. I have done a lot of shooting on my time and the Marine Corps time, I will look into the different reload machines and I will do a hole lot of reading before I start. I will also be doing a lot of questioning about the same subject. Its not something I fully understand but it also not anything I cant do. Matter of fact the only thing so far in life I cant do is advance calculaest.

What do you mean " Wait ".........LOL I want t have fun to , and I dont mind buying ammo. It will give me some spent brass anyways.

OK, after a lot of reading in here I am going ahead with my .300 Black Out build. Is there any fatory loads out there yet? I have never done any loading myself o that would be interesting! I may be asking many questions about loading before long.

So from what I have read here is that the .300 black out does use a .308 bullet. Is this right? If so it is the ideal build. I do not reload now but I do plan on starting reloading in the future. If it is a 308 bullet then that would save a lot of variants in surplus. I have to finish my dpms build and this new build then I am going to start looking at reloading. I only shoot from time to time, but I would like to have a few 1000 rounds for each rifle. Really I am building these rifles cause I really feel that one day these rifles will not be sold whole or by parts and my kids will need them after I am dead and gone.

So what you are saying is the 300 BLK can handle the higher pressure than the 300 fireball. If that is the case That is the one I will be useing.

Brother it is an open forum, but know not everyone has an answer for evry part. Post and you will get feedback!!

Yes, that page does need updated. I got the Troy MFG 13.8 inch and I like it, I like it aalot. It is light weight and fills good in my hand.

OK guys I am back at, but not with the 308 build. I have started a new build on one of my multi cal lowers. What can yall tell me? I am wanting to know the difference in a .300 ACC Black out and a .300 Fireball? I have already ordered everything with the exception of my barrel,gas block, BCG, and sights from Brownells. I am torn between a .300 and a 7.62x39. Help me decide, and give me some reasons. Thanks Tom
