I predict 200+ replies on this thread. Further, it will go off topic in less than.....mmmmm...75.
I seriously doubt I’m giving anything away by keeping my little AK caliber Saiga rifle and keeping the 5G for the exotic new rifle in my own bank account....
How about them Mosin Nagants? ;)
... ... but I like it !!!!
Haha! One down, one to go.
193 to go
Anyone have a good cinnamon toast recipe?
300 AAC? Okay, do you have the ballistics for this? I ask solely from curiosity. How does it stack up against all of the other .30 caliber range rounds? While those are effective rounds, and plenty of hunters have had great sucess with them, I prefer a 12ga, with either a slug, three ball shot, or 00buck for feral pigs and boars. I guess it depends on geography and personal likes. In the end, it’s all good if you bring home dinner.
How effective is that subsonic round against blue helmets?
Purty danged so I’d reckon. Wikipedia has some good details on the round’s performance.
1) Piece, bread; 2) toast; 3) butter, 4) sprinkle fine ground cinamon, 4) wrap with partially cooked bacon strips, 5) coat with batter, 6) deep fry.
Maximum effective range =
460 metres (503 yd) 125 grain supersonic
200 metres (219 yd) 220 grain subsonic

You had me at bacon
Side point, for those of us who can't afford an AR or the functional equivalent for every caliber we shoot, (or wish to shoot), NEF makes their neat little single-shot in this caliber.
If someone knows of a good bolt gun at an entry level price point I wouldn't mind knowing about that, either.
Edit: “...a good bolt gun with a threaded muzzle...”
.300BLK forum is at http://300blktalk.com/ run by the guy who designed it.
4 parts sugar to 1 part cinnamon on heavily buttered toast.
“...feral hogs...”
This is good for both the two legged and four legged varieties? Or should I just stick with my 7.62x39?
