150gr fmj is plinking/training ammo. The 125gr black tip or 110gr SST is only a few cents more a round so you can train with your defensive ammo without breaking the bank. Huge benefit because you get to run your gun with your "real" ammo so you know it's reliable, and you don't have to worry about zero shifts between ammo types.

To me, 150gr in 300blk is the worst of both worlds. It's too heavy to take advantage of speed and too light to be subsonic.

150 grains usually due better energy wise than light stuff, 115, 125, in short barrels

@@Prodigysportsmannarp. Velocity is squared in the energy equation. Lighter and faster typically puts up better numbers especially in 300 blk

I agree. I shoot mostly 110, 115 and 125. The 150 is super cheap but really one a nickel cheaper.

All I'm interested in seeing is the AAC "Sabre Blade Black Tip" 300 Blackout 220 Grain tested on ballistics gel. No one has tested it yet.

Those didn’t exist when I made this one. I’m betting 95% it’s just going to tumble. But if I get some ill test it

@@SimplestUsername Highly doubt it will expand much, if at all. It looks very similar to the 208 amax and those don't expand at subsonic velocities.

I just tested out my home defense Aero 10in 300aac/blackout. 1.5in or less with sig 125gr

It was $12 a box when i got some recently which is cheaper than steal 7.62x39 where im at. Was a bit firebally in my 10.5 but if anything its great plinking ammo and if you reload good brass to make a more desirable load.

Good to hear!

funnily enough AAC 150gr also groups terribly (6 MOA) out of my honey badger barrel, but their 110gr vmax load and their 220gr subsonic load groups much better, around 1.5-2 MOA.

Good data thank you!

Love to see more AAC videos. Haven't bought from them yet, as I still default to Winchester for my 5.56, but really considering switching over to AAC, especially because of their Saber Blade black tips

Just subbed. Very excited to know about expansion and fragmentation of the AAC 300blk lineup. Thanks

Love the full size scope on the 7.5 lol

Good video 👍

The market really needs a 110gr FMJ that has the profile of the 125s FMJs. The only commonly available 110gr I’m familiar with is meant for M1 carbines.

Great video. I'm curious how much the barrel twist rate is affecting the accuracy. From what I've seen 150 makes fine plinking for practice ammo, but isn't very nice for tight groups. I'd like to see these same tests done with Barnes Tac black tips if you can. Thanks again!

IMO the velocity is too low so your groups are bigger then normal
