I've heard/read this a lot, most of the time, I hear it as 8.0" or 8.2". The more I think about it, the more I think this is an internet falsehood.

Just ponder this: Is it reasonable to...

Quarterbore Forum dead?

This is the first time I've been able to log on in months here.

I had to take quite a circuitous route to get here at that. Tried to get on with my iPad and both Quarterbore.net and...

Sha-ul -

For a bolt gun with cast, the crimp is mostly just to take the flare off the mouth. The other function is to resist set-back if you are loading from the magazine. (Even hand-cycling from...

Barrel finish question

Question for those who have tread this path before:

I am a firm believer in the melonite barrel treatment, and I've always intended to get a melonite 300 barrel. All my 5.56/223 barrels have been...

Different bullets will react differently to this. I once sized down some .323" 8mm bullets to load in a .318"-barrelled Mauser. The core became loose from the jacket. Turns out the jacket will...

Animosity among calibers

I've noticed in perusing Arfcom that there is not a small rivalry/animosity between supporters of the 300 Whisper/Blackout and of the 6.8 Rem. SPC.

I happen to really like both cartridges and see...

While SR4759 occupies a nearly-ideal spot on the burn-rate chart for use in the 300, one never sees it listed in loads. My guess is that it is unsuitable because it is a very bulky powder,...

Nice.

If I may, why the can when you have no intentions of shooting subsonics?

It would appear this heavy, slow, long-for-diameter bullet has operated just as intended: it tumbled. Nice oblong holes through the lungs transmitting much shock/trauma.

Nice job, not only with...

Thanks for the reply, Hoser.

Been awhile - hello again

So, I logged on yesterday and see my last log-on was 2006! :eek:

Just wanted to see if the madness had struck the 300 community, and looking through the vendors, I see it has... Nearly all 300...

I'm a little disappointed they didn't include AA#9 in the Subsonic section, but Accurate/Ramshot are some of my favorite powders (& not just for the Whisper/Blackout). Maybe they'll add #9 in the...

I noticed that Sierra came out with a new .30-cal. MK bullet at 210grs (stock #9240). Since besides Whisper shooters, the only people who shoot the 240s are the 1000-yd. shooters with the 30-cal...

Some people do have a need, sometimes an urgent need, to kill others. Sorry if that mentality is a "bit silly."

Well, I've always thought of the 300Whisp. as a short- to medium-range caliber. I've never thought of shooting it past 150-200yds. I like to look at it as the best round for the M-4 Carbine (and...
