Thought I'd share my new build with you. I always treat myself to a new gun when I finish a deployment. Decided to go with a full custom 300/221 Blackout. The build took almost nine months but that was mainly due to the stock running behind. A gentleman in Co built it for me.

Modified Rem 700 action with sako extractor and tactical bolt knob

16" Brux heavy barrel with 1 in 8" twist (threaded for surpressor)

Jewell trigger set at 8 oz

Manners stock with adjustable cheek piece

CDI bottom metal and magazine

I added a NF 20 MOA two piece base

NF Med rings

NF NXS 5.5-22x56

I just received it so haven't fired it yet. Got brass formed, primed and ready. Just need time.

Once I get out to the range I'll post the results.

This is my first custom rifle and I'm super excited about it.
 
Very cool rifle!
What's the max range you expect to get with sub-sonic ammo?
Looking forward to your range report with some targets!

Awesome!

I just shot my friends custom tonight. His is on a CZ action with a Douglas 16" barrel. At 50 yards we were putting factory Hornady loads in the same hole. My SBR ar will do less than moa with my loads.

Hornady makes a factory load for that?

Sweet, i never knew that.... of course i haven't bought factory ammo in years either.....
 
The good part of the factory Hornady loads is that I got the brass. Now I have brass with 300 Whisper head stamp and 300 Blackout head stamps, not to mention the 223 Laupua Match head stamp that I made and a couple of thousand lc stamped.

I like my loads just fine. I'm using 220 SMKs and 208 Amaxes.
