Videos tagged with Supersonic Loads

This guide details the process of firing an MP5 equipped with a Layer X Strake9 suppressor. The video highlights the suppressor's titanium construction, low back pressure design, and effectiveness with both supersonic and subsonic 9mm ammunition, suggesting hearing protection may not be necessary. It also touches on hub compatibility for QD mounts.

This video compares the performance of Hodgdon H110 and Accurate Lil' Gun powders for supersonic 300 Blackout loads using 110gr Barnes Tac-TX bullets. The experiment found Lil' Gun to yield higher average velocities and a better standard deviation compared to H110 with max charge loads, challenging common assumptions.

This video provides an in-depth discussion and defense of the 300 Blackout cartridge, presented by an experienced firearms enthusiast. The speaker highlights its versatility, comparing its performance to other calibers like 7.62x39 and .308 Winchester. Key points include its effectiveness for hunting, suitability for suppressed shooting with subsonic loads, and its efficient use of pistol powders, making it less sensitive to barrel length compared to cartridges like 5.56 NATO.

This video details the process of reloading lightweight supersonic 300 Blackout loads using Hodgdon CFE BLK powder. The instructor explores compressed loads with 110gr Hornady V-MAX and 125gr Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets, discusses challenges like bullet seating and case capacity limitations, and tests the ammunition in both an 8.5-inch SBR and a 16-inch rifle. The focus is on achieving accuracy with this powder, noting its excellent standard deviation numbers despite not being a top-tier velocity powder.

This video provides a comprehensive primer test for Hodgdon CFE BLK powder in 300 Blackout. The instructor, with significant reloading and ballistics testing experience, evaluates six different primers across subsonic and supersonic loads using both 8.5-inch and 16-inch barrels. The analysis includes detailed velocity, standard deviation, and group size data, offering insights into primer performance with this specific powder.

This video details the process of reloading 300 Blackout supersonic ammunition, specifically focusing on the 168gr Hornady A-Max bullet. The instructor emphasizes precise case preparation, including cleaning and chamfering, followed by accurate powder charging and bullet seating to achieve consistent overall length. The goal is to develop a reliable and accurate load for the 300 Blackout cartridge, with considerations for velocity and potential environmental factors affecting performance.

This guide details a load workup for 300 Blackout supersonic ammunition using 168gr Hornady A-Max bullets with IMR 4227 and Winchester 296 (H110) powders. It covers brass preparation, priming, powder charging, bullet seating with attention to overall length, and crimping. The process emphasizes careful observation of pressure signs and group sizes during live-fire testing at 100 yards using a Lead Sled for stability. The instructor, with apparent reloading experience, highlights discrepancies in published load data and the importance of individual firearm testing.
