Have not had much time to work on it. So far- 112 FNGC cast w/o gas check over 6 gr blue dot makes one hole @ 25 yds. Will be good small game load.

casca,
 
work in progress. my recently shortened stubbed 300AAC barrel is chucked up in a lathe waiting for threads.  At +21" it liked 147g fmjbts over 16g H110, obviously not a subsonic loading. 
I don't mind converting the 223 to 300 blkout, because for me it is much easier (and cheaper with cast boolits) to load 300 blkout than the 223.

Why be difficult, when with a little extra effort you can be impossible?
