    You've shot my 9.5" AAC upper kit that I built. No issues except when I was loading up those 245gr lead coated sub rounds.

    I decided to build one, I have a 10.5" barrel https://www.odinworks.com/300_Blacko...p/b-300-10.htm and I am picking up the rest of the upper parts tomorrow. I am leaning towards the Silencer Co Omega for a suppressor.

    I'm very satisfied with my omega on 556, 300blk and 308. I think it is a great option. I also recommend to go with the flash hider and not the brake for your mount. The brake is not needed on 300blk in my opinion.

    That looks great. Are you shooting mostly super or subsonic ammo, and are you noticing much zero shift with/without the Omega?
    I like my rifles like my women - short, light, fast, brown, and suppressed.

    People shoot unsuppressed?!

    I don't shoot unsuppressed rifle if I can help it. About a 2 mil rightward shift with the same Saker on my 700.

    Finally got around to putting my BCM upper together. I originally bought the 8" KMR but found it was too long and interfered with my SDN-6. Swapped out the 8" KMR for the 7" (a relatively simple affair; need to sell the 8" rail now). Looking forward to getting it out to the range this weekend.

    300Blk can be finicky in an AR, suppressed and unsuppressed, subsonic and supersonic loads. I've found the AAC uppers run the best given the wide variety of operating conditions. I have a 9" pistol upper, and it runs great! Highly recommended.

    What insight did he have?

    I'm planning on getting a 12.5" 6.8 SPC upper next year for deer/HD purposes. I already have a 12.5" 5.56 SBR and don't really see an upside to 300 BLK over 6.8 for the occasional shooting that I'll probably do. As someone who doesn't reload and sees no point in shooting subsonics (I don't get excited when shooting guns, suppressed or not), what does 300 BLK do over 6.8?

    I did put together an 8" 300 BLK upper with a Noveske barrel years ago but sold it before I put a round through it because ammo prices were still kinda high. The way I see it, either caliber will cost about the same to shoot (hunting ammo) and convert to. Ammo price seems to have gone down too with 300 BLK at $0.37/rd (reloaded) and 6.8 SPC at $0.45 (new) for plinking ammo. PSA currently has an amazing deal on 6.8 SPC 90gr Gold Dots for $10 a box. Since deer season is essentially over it's something I'll have a few months to think about. The only upside I can see right now is that I already have a TBAC 30P-1 and it could be used with the short 300 BLK because of the lower pressure. They don't recommend a barrel length under 14.5" with 6.8 or 5.56.
