300 BLK loads with 2400?

[maroonandwhite]

Any of you guys loaded up 300 blackout using 2400 powder? I picked up some of it and am wanting to load 125gr bullets for hunting. The Hornady load ranges seem really week.

Won't cycle an AR if that's your intention.

Really? I am seeing reports both ways so there must be some variables.

It's too fast. I don't think you can get enough in the case before hitting max pressure to get really useful velocity. Maybe work for some folks with modified gun and pistol gas system. I stick to h110, lil gun and a1680.
