The 300 Blackout has become a popular short range deer and hog cartridge, especially in compact AR rifles and suppressed builds. This listing is Federal Power-Shok 300 AAC Blackout 150 grain jacketed soft point ammo, MPN 300BLKB, sold as 200 rounds for hunters, hog control teams, and anyone who wants a proven supersonic hunting load for a 300 BLK.
Federal rates this load at 1,900 fps with 1,202 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The Power-Shok soft point has exposed lead at the tip that starts expansion on impact, while the copper jacket controls it so the bullet holds together for penetration. At 150 grains, it balances velocity and weight for deer and hogs inside roughly 150 yards. This is a hunting load, so use a full metal jacket round of similar weight for inexpensive practice.
This ammunition fits firearms chambered in 300 AAC Blackout, including AR-15 rifles and pistols with 300 BLK barrels from Daniel Defense, Ruger, and Smith and Wesson, the SIG MCX and Rattler, CZ 527, Ruger American Ranch, Savage Axis in 300 BLK, and Thompson Center and Henry single shots. A common question is whether 300 Blackout is enough for deer. With a soft point like this and shots kept to moderate distance, it is effective, but check your state’s rules for minimum cartridge requirements. Another common question is whether 300 BLK can be fired from a 5.56 rifle. Never. A 300 BLK round can chamber in a 5.56 barrel and cause a catastrophic failure, so label magazines clearly.
Federal 300BLKB is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA in Anoka, Minnesota. It uses reloadable boxer-primed brass cases and non-corrosive primers. This listing ships as 10 boxes of 20 rounds for 200 total from one lot, so you can zero once and hunt with the same load for several seasons.
