[QUOTE="aestus, post: 2355799, member: 2989"] I built a 10.5" blackout and love it. Whenever I go out to the range, it's probably the most requested rifle people ask to shoot. I have a KX3 type compensator right now so i've lucked out in that my build reliably shoots both subsonics and supersonics. Some builds may have issues with subsonics without a suppressor or are overgassed with supersonics when tuned for subsonics. What's amazing is that the 300 blackout really shows you what a 7.62 intermediate cartridge can really do out to long ranges when built on an accurate platform. It really makes you think just how much potential the AK never realized with the intermediate round. Granted, the AK had a different purpose in mind, so not really apples to apples. Unless the 6.8 becomes adopted by the military or ammo becomes comparable to 300 blackout rounds in price, I think I would go with 6.5 instead if you wanted long range. Otherwise, I'd go 300 blackout or 9mm. [/QUOTE]
