I'm acquiring all the stuff to get into the .300 AAC Blackout game. I reload on a Dillon 550B and have everything for .223 already. Going shopping at the gunshow this weekend and want to get some components.

I'm thinking about starting with new Remington brass
What powder for sub loads? I'm thinking "'lil gun"
Standard small rifle primers (CCI 400 on hand...)
What 220gr bullets to pick up?

How about for supersonic while I'm waiting for the suppressor?

You'll find all this info already there at:

You will probably NOT want Lil Gun for subsonic loads.

You may want to compare the price of new brass to the price of UMC 115gr supersonic ammo made with the same brass.

Lil'Gun is a supersonic powder, and not as good a choice as H110.

Get some Sierra 220s and a couple pounds of Vhit N-110.
