LMT 300 blackout barrel

[rsilvers]

AAC Cyclone would be good.

300 AAC Blackout has been outselling it many many many times over.

You can put any barrel into the MRP or MWS:

DBMG MRP Conversion

DBMG MWS conversion

$150 MRP or $170 MWS

I thought about going that route, but $200 for the barrel mininum plus $150 for the conversion vs $350 for a LMT barrel. I think I will wait.

Same thoughts I have. I see no real need for the conversions except if you're shooting 6.8 and/or want a 20inch 5.56 barrel. LMT has good offerings in everything else.

Rem factory supersonic ammo is available to them at the end of the month. We already shipped it to some customers.

I head most weapon manufacturers have already designed their platforms around the 300 whisper because the ammo is virtually the same and readily available with Hornady.

[rsilvers]

The Hornady ammo has been available to a few makers for a month or two. The Rem subsonic ammo has been available much longer than that - about 9 months.

For supersonic - yes - the Hornady is out now. You can design your rifle around a combination of Rem subsonic and Hornady supersonic ammo.

Or if you want to shoot 7.62x39, any wildcat, or desire a particular spec that LMT won't offer (like not budging on 6.8spc that you alluded to).

Dennis is working on my 3rd conversion as we speak (BHW 18" 6.5PCC with pinned Noveske switchblock... 223 parent case wildcat). Still waiting on dies and an 762-SDN-6. He converted my 10.5" Noveske 300FB before 300BLK was a reality and my 20" Noveske 6.5 Creedmoor for the MWS (all in cost right at the $700 LMT charges for its stainless 308s).

Will be cool if LMT does release the chromed 300BLK barrel for $344 as based on the picture from SHOT they had what looked like a 16" stainless barrel with pistol gas on display.

We use proper spelling, punctuation, and grammar around here.

Why do I see spelling mistakes from others in this thread? I really do appreciate your answer to my question though.
