300 BLK – 10.5 in – HRN 190gr SUB-X – Accurate 2200

Objective:

I am developing this load to be shot out of an SBR with a suppressor. This will mainly be used to hunt hogs at night at distances less than 100 yards. The goal is to find a powder that produces reasonable accuracy (~ 1 MOA) and consistent velocities around 1,050 fps.

  • C.O.L.: 2.050
Load / Model Data:
  • Charge Data
  • Expected Ballistics Table
  • Expected Bullet Drop
Results:
  • 12.5 Grains
  • 13.0 Grains
Summary:

With 13.0gr of Accurate 2200 the velocities a little below the goal. The accuracy was great at lower velocity but dropped as I got closer to 1,050 fps. As a bonus, this load locked my bolt back on the last round. Accurate 2200 is also a viable powder, but I am going with Accurate LT-30 for now.
