    Looking for cheap 300 blk bullets for subsonic loads. I normally only shoot Sierra but I feel there should be some cheaper options. Any recommendations?

    How does $.13 per round sound? I have no problems or fouling in my suppressed .300AAC.

    leatherheads work very well.

    King Shooters Supply is another PC coated bullet I've used that are good to go as well. Slightly higher at $0.18 per bullet

    The issue I've had with both of the PC coated bullets has been cases that don't chamber due to the .01 or .02 oversizing (depending on the brand).

    And yes, I am aware that not all brass is 300 BLK reliable to convert...if you have a tight / match chamber the PC bullets can be problematic unless you turn necks.

    If you go the route of the PC coated bullet and do have some issues, Lee makes a swaging die for bullets that takes them back to .308. Didn't bother the PC coating, solves the issue and accuracy was about the same.

    Thanks. Looks like I need to due some research on PC bullets. Always shot jacketed. Just seems funny to have a colored bullet.

    yeah, I haven't been able to get the PC subs to shoot better than about 5 or 6 MOA. Haven't tried jacketed yet.
