I googled,

Didn’t see any factory offerings.

I’d like a cheap savage or RAR for pigs.

Waiting for a 30cal suppressor to be stamped.


Any good 300bo uppers that have 5/8-24 threads?

I’ve got a couple stag ar15s i could swap parts with.

If you have an extra LH upper that you are not using on a regular basis, fairly easy to swap out an existing 5.56 AR barrel to .300 BO. Only issue is FINDING a .300 BO barrel that you like, at a price that you are willing to pay, in the current market. Quick google search, the few 300 BO barrels that I found available cost as much as the last DPMS complete upper that I bought from Midway. But those days are gone.

If you want to try swapping barrels, I "think" I still have a 16" 300 BO barrel with mid-length gas port (and gas tube) packed away somewhere. I had to go to a barrel with pistol length gas port to cycle subsonics reliably. Shoot me a PM if interested. I'll do a quick search for it over the weekend...

Orion,

Thanks for the offer.

Shooting an AR is my limit of knowing how one works.

I know nothing on setting one up for reliable use, esp subsonic.

That’s why i was leaning towards a bolt gun.

Too bad they aren’t still making a handi rifle.

Can always do a TC Contender/Encore and get a 300 BO barrel. Makes for a pretty sweet setup.

No market. People in their right mind know better.

Muffin,

I like it.

I’ve got a encore, that maybe be the easier way to go.

T/c make a barrel or that a eabco or mgm barrel?

Or maybe cva.


I agree. Not much market.

FYI,

Google suppresses results for gun-related searches. Try DuckDuckGo. instead.

Buy a Savage in .223 Rem. and re-barrel it yourself. You'll need a vise, barrel wrench ($30) and a set of go/no go gauges.


Shoot straight, shoot often, but by all means, use enough gun!

I have a LH Black Out. It's a Tikka T3 that was re-barreled. Runs great. Let me know if this is something you would have an interest in.

No worries. Honestly, if you want "really quiet" a bolt rifle or single shot is a better option. I am always surprised at how much noise the AR action makes when it cycles. It becomes really obvious on a well suppressed 300 BO. My favorite suppressed rifle is my suppressed LH Rem 581. My second favorite suppressed rifle is my son's suppressed Rem 600 in 300 BO.
