Funny you mention those build points. Mine is almost what you speak of. I have a 10.5" Noveske barrel, ASA side charge upper, pistol gas system, TP555 3 way gas block (hi/low/off), a YHM free float...

My AR doesn't like the original 225gr bullet so I would love to give these a try. I would also like to see the photos of the progression of expansion.

I've had pretty good luck with 2400. I use 8.5gr of 2400 with 240gr SMK's and 8.0gr of 2400 with 208 AMAX's, both right at 1030fps.

ETA: 10.5" bbl

The 147gr FMJ is a poor performer out of a .308 so at 300 W velocities it will be even worse. It will work with perfect shot placement, which you should be able to do at 30 yards, but poorly hit...

I'm hoping for 1:10, since that is what my 300WM is, but their 208 A-Max needs a 1:10 so we'll have to see. For a BC like that the bullet has to have a long profile.

So this will be an OTM not an A-Max?

Any idea what twist will be needed? I'd love to try them in my 300 Win Mag too.

I get 2100fps from a 10.5" Noveske barrel using 19.5gr of W296.

My barrel is a 10.5" Noveske and it shoots 208gr Amax's and 240 SMK's fine. I think the AAC Blackout barrels are going to be 16" or 9" and I've not heard of any of those having problems with...

I'm looking forward to seeing what you find out. I've read through the thread and I'm stumped, especially since there are problems with two different barrels.

The Sierra 30-30 bullets should perform well at Whisper velocities as they are designed with a lower velocity threshold in mind. The trouble is they usually won't feed well in an AR.

Yep, that would be the same 125gr TNT that Bressfetcher gel tested for AAC at 300 BLK velocities. One of the neat things about "varmint" bullets in the Whisper/BLK is that they are designed to...
