We are about to engage in a build, doing two ar's at the same time, think mine will be in 300blackout. Never done nor fired one in this flavor. Those who have, would you recommend it, love it hate it. It'll be for cast and jacketed but mostly cast, eventually I'd like to get a can for it, it'll be a plinker, deer hog hunter coyote ect. The ar is not my favorite platform but after my stint in the marine corps and years of shooting them in hi power and 3 gun I am very comfortable and proficient with one. Like the 300blackout on paper and in the theroy but what do you think of yours? Already have a way to make brass and molds from 150-200 grains. Lots of jacketed. Would I be better served getting an encore barrel first to test with?
