Suppressed (no large cyclic rate change)
SBR
Subsonic
Larger/expanding bullet
Empty Wallet
And any combination of those the 300blk will "do better" than 223/556. No dog in the fight, but that does not prevent me from seeing the obvious differences of one vs another. To the OP not running suppressed OR SBR, I would not do 300blk. That doesn't mean it's useless as a 16" unsuppressed, just less useful for ME.
