Thanks for the history lesson. Good stuff. I wrongly assumed that the 300BLK started as a shortened 223 since that is the way most make the cases. I knew of the 221 Fireball, but didn't know that it shared case head dimensions.
I agree with you on the Blackout name being a little .. trendy.
I picked up a 300BLK barrel and dies just for kicks and paper punching. I don't plan to shoot subs or get a suppressor, but who knows.
