Should make calling hits on steel easier...
That's a pretty long barrel for a 300 BlackOut, isn't it? What is the longest shot at the Nationals?

SSG Daniel Horner of the USAMU used 300 AAC Blackout to win his 4th USPSA Multi-Gun National Championship.
Thank you for shooting with it, and also thank you Rob and Jansen of the Noveske team for shooting with it.

My guess is he didn't use factory 300, i have yet to see remington factory stuff that works well.

Where did he get a barrel that long? I looked all over for an 18-20 inch barrel and found nothing... Also I thought after 16" on the AAC 300 Blackout that there isn't a significant change in ballistics specs . I'd be happy to be wrong. Anyone have any info?

I think what they mean is that it does unusually well with a short barrel. Does not mean it does not do better with a longer barrel. Here is a chart I made using QuickLoad to show how velocity has a sweet spot around 16 inches, but continues to go up well past 24 inches.
As for where he got a barrel that long - the Army made that barrel, but anyone can make you a barrel any length you want. Try Satern or White Oak.

This ammo works very well:

But it is not designed to make Major Power Factor - the AMU made their own ammo.

Re: 300 AAC Blackout at the 3-Gun Multigun Nationals
Thanks rsilvers!
Do you happen to have a chart/specs that compares 5.56 to the AAC 300 out of 18"+ barrel? I was originally looking at building a SPR in 5.56 but wanted something more powerful. I've toyed with the idea of 6.8 SPC II and a 7.62 SPR for log distance precision shooting. How does the AAC 300 Blackout fall in the spectrum of the other three?
