.300 blackout pistol build

[just bill]

Non adjustable here on my 9.5". Suppressed, totally reliable action with 247 noe while using cfe blackout powder. Not so much with hH110....... Get the powder designed for the gun and it just works..

I find your information about the cast boolets interesting. Years ago I was led to believe that cast boolits would lead to gas block and tube fouling problems, however I've seen where quite a few reloaders use them. I'm interested in what composition, other than wheel weights which is what I've used in my pistol plunkers. Thanks,
Bill

I have never, so far, used the forward assist, other than rifle instructions in basic training, so is it really necessary to have one? My AR-10 doesn't have one so my thoughts are just thread the hole and fabricate a plug and loctite it in the upper. Thanks in advance for the info.

You can buy plugs for them. I have one Anderson upper where the hole is slightly off. Try as I might I was unable to install a forward assist. I tried a few of them because I was building three rifles at the time. A few minutes on Amazon and a plug arrived two days later.
