Guns & Ammo TV: Shooting 600 Yards with .300 Blackout

The .300 Blackout cartridge was developed to provide greater effectiveness than a 9mm at short and medium ranges when fired from a short-barreled suppressed firearm. Just because the cartridge wasn’t designed to go long doesn’t mean Rifles & Optics Editor Tom Beckstrand won’t take it there, using a large-format pistol, no less. Armed with SIG Sauer’s 9-inch-barreled MCX Virtus Pistol loaded with Black Hills’ 125-grain TMK ammunition, Beckstrand attempts to ring steel at 600 yards with help from Hornady’s 4DOF ballistic calculator in this segment of “Long Range Tech.”
