Those of you that are so inclined to use 300Blk, what’s your choice for an HD round?

Although 300 Blackout isn’t what I’d normally prefer as a defensive cartridge, I do have guns chambered for the round and I settled on Hornady 110 grain V-MAX as probably the best for my purposes based on its ballistics and reviews I have seen.

Hornady 110 grain V-MAX

Seeing what it does to water jugs, I heartily agree with what sigfreund has suggested.

If you're suppressed, it's also available in a 208 grain sub-sonic version, which is equally detrimental to soft targets at defensive range.

You really should use full power supersonic ammo for social use. I like Hornady's V-Max and CX projectiles.

300BLK SBR is my go-to.

Barnes 110-grain TAC-TX for me--It's expensive, but my Family is worth it...

Thanks guys, my SBR’d BCM that’s suppressed is a great HD gun. I grab 300Blk ammo when I can, I guess I have two or three mags of HD stuff. Definitely need more.

I have the Hornady 208 in subs and the 110 in supers.

Yes the solid copper Barnes projectiles are hell-on-wheels.

I have Underwood 110gr Armageddon .300 Blackout in my home defense Sig Rattler - also a Witt SME to lessen the noise somewhat. We can't have suppressors here in Illinois, but I keep electronic hearing protection muffs with any home defense firearm at all times. It's especially critical with rifle caliber "pistols".

Same here. Custom made my own.
