Awesome shooting from the 16". Lehigh is doing some interesting things. Thanks for sharing a representation of the accuaracy to go along with all the gel test performance vids out there.
Great comparison! Damn man those are some of the best groups I've seen yet and with a 300BLK round that's really cool! Great shooting on your part and I really like the in depth target review and speaking your mind about what happened. Format is great Johnny I really dig the channel
That was definitely the best target I've ever shot with 300 blackout. We've shot some small groups here and there, but that whole target was good stuff. Thanks a lot man!
main thing I got out of this video is that I'm glad I went with 16 inch barrel in my 300 Blackout I also went with 16 inch barrel on my 458 Socom. I've seen people talk disparagingly about the accuracy of the 458 but with mine I am having really good results. best 5 shot group of .75 minutes. best from my 300 is .9 minutes which considering the main usage for both is home defense will definitely work. I typically use Lil gun powder but currently I'm trying out Hodgdon 300 Blackout for both chamberings so far so good. I use Lehigh defense almost exclusively for my rounds I keep in my guns in case of emergency needed use. great ammo. the one exception to this would be polycase ARX for my 458 which have shown very very devastating results on soft tissue Targets. your vids are always info filled and seemingly unbiased....thanks.
Johnny, all I can is awesome man! I think you have something with those bullets and that 16" gun. All those single digit standard deviation numbers was fantastic. As for the controlled chaos, Ive seen the gel tests etc.. for those buggers. They are impressive to say the least. I can't wait to see more development on this series. Keep up the good work brother! Take care!
Very good detailed video. I have done my own full load work up of the 115gr. CU. bullets with my favorite powder, Win. 296. In my 9" AAC blackout. 18.6gr. charge won the test for my development. Looks similar to your 18.5gr. Group. I use Win296 for my 220gr subsonic loads too which work perfectly against the over hyped 1680 powder.
Your results are what I'd expect, the 8.5" is for CQB. So the groups look good!(to me) The 16" IS impressive! That's a great combination of rifles with the SBR a PRIME Home Defense weapon and the Controlled Chaos is supposed to be a great Home Defense round! Then the 16" for reaching out when needed. Love the .300blk series!
I went from 18.3 to19.5 of h110 in .3 increments with my PSA 8.5 inch. 18.6 shot a 7/8” group. Which is very similar to your results. Mine also opened up on the top end so I guess I’ll settle with a lower Velocity for accuracy.thanks for all your hard work and videos they are great information.
I have the same measuring tool as you and found mine to change measurements also. I went back to my dial and have no issues with it. Also I noticed you missed crimping a couple rounds towards the end of your reloading as you talked about your slide. This could have been some of your fryers. I enjoy your channel.
My short barrel 300blk I used a AR Stoner 10.5 ss. couldn't be more pleased, seems to shoot everything well. Might help your sbr out if you don't mind a bit longer.. As always, thanks for another great vid, nice shooting!
100 yard groups. Keep in mind 10.5" is the best "minimum" length to take advantage of 300AAC. Especially for hunting precision and velocity for deer and hogs within 100 yards. Excellent value to your efforts here.
Like this video and it proves to me that a short stubby barrel isnt in my mind a group shooter.. like a snub nose revolver vs a 8” target match shooter. Was always told longer barrel is the best and to me this proves it. Sbr is in my mind a close qtr combat self defense gun and longer barrel is a hunting barrel..
Thanks for the reloading review. For some reason I get much tighter groups out of my 8.5" barrel with factory Lehigh 115 Controlled Chaos. Was using you tips as I plan to use H110 as they recommend, Yet I heard W296 is the same powder. Hope I can get the same results as I do with there factory ammo.
I have 2 simular guns and have really enjoyed the series. I just don't think it's worth the money for those Rainier or Noveske at $400 plus. I have a 10.5 Faxon and 14.5 Balistics Advantage and they are very accurate. I have used these bullets with 19.1gr of H110. However my 110gr Vmax with 19.2grs of H110 are my go to sub MOA bullet in my 14.5in barrel. Keep it up JB, I save money with you eliminating the bad stuff for us.
Wow, that Rainier Arms barrel is really disappointing me. I almost paid big bucks to buy one but got an 8” Seekins Precision barrel instead. Excited to test the accuracy of it.
john, my experience with Alliant is bad, that 300-mp has always disappointed my expectations, I load a lot of heavy pistol magnums, 44, 454, 460........I've never had more squib dud loads than with this crap from alliant, continually underperformed in velocity throughout all the calibers, and what a mess to clean plus the dangers of squibs. I called alliant which is Vista outdoors subsidiary, the jackass in charge was the most obnoxious person, I explained my concerns & he "told" me to send him the powder back packed in 300 mag. cases , around 85g each, capped with a bullet, then they would run analysis on the contents.......really, so I lose powder & cases& bullets. .....a real jackass!! I eliminated reliant from my purchases from that point on, by the way, you do a fantastic job with all your vids, great channel, thanks also, maybe you can comment, just picked up 300BO, 11.5 bbl, I use 152gn hardcast, ww & linotype with a splash of tin, great bullets ....having feeding issues, I saw the removal of the mag rib issue, then feeding fine, is that true, any comments will be great, thanks
It would be interesting to see a Factory Brass video. Hornady price has dropped (per 100), Nosler offers SSA now, Federal pretty cheap. Now there's Prvi Partizan, Sig Sauer, Winchester, Jagemann, Armscor, and Starline (cant find S&B). Some are SAAMI .223 like brass, others thicker like 5.56 brass (velocity potential?).
Greeting from NY Johnny: A while back when I saw your video on the Lee Reloader Single Stage Press ( the c Press). Question: How do you empty the primer catcher on this machine? from what I can see you have to unbolt the press from the bench in order to empty it! So if you can answer this it would be greatly appriciated! And by the way thanks for sharing your knowledge of reloading! Happy Reloading Victor Torres
I don't know any solution for that. I have seen people cut a hole in their bench for the primers to fall out of but I wasn't willing to do that. Frankford Arsenal makes a handheld decapping unit that might be another solution for you. It would cost more than your press did, though! Good luck!
Ok! Thanks John! I was trying to figure it myself. Other than unbolting the press from the bench I didn't see any remedy for that problem either! I'll try Lees customer service and lll see what they'll me! I'll keep you posted! Thanks Again!
its a big bore ar 15 , cartridge, but we can form our own brass from , 308, 30-06, 270,,makes it cheaper, but the data shows , basically, kenetic energy is equal to the velocity with a 200 gr projectile
A little help. That cron graph hanging off the end of your barrel defeats the purpose of free float barrel so you can take that for what its worth. I wouldn’t trust it when the barrel harmonics are getting tampered with.
My groups are much better with the chrono off. It changes my point of impact slightly, could be a mental thing but I definitely get better groups with it off.
Your degrading accuracy over time with the first barrel could very well be due to fouling -- copper or even carbon. Without a good borescope it's possible to have a lot of fouling that you really can't detect well -- and which typical cleaning methods don't remove. Personally, I've learned a HELL of a lot about bores and cleaning since getting my Hawkeye borescope. I now use exclusively "Bore Tech" bore cleaning products, and I can see for myself how great a job it does.
That is certainly possible. I did a deep cleaning on both guns before this video, though. I use Butch's Bore Shine and/or foaming bore cleaners to remove copper. I might pick up some J-B and give that a try before I replace the barrel. It also might be a major lead deposit or something from all the lead I've shot through it. I definitely agree that I need a bore scope!
I have an original JD Jones SSK 300 whisper barrel for my TC contender. It will shoot supers and subs, 10 shots into an inch at 100 yards. Haven't found a load it won't shoot.
Uhhh... yeah... it's not only good for them, it's seriously just DEVASTATING to anything it hits. I'd use it on a bear or an elk after shooting 6 coyotes, 15 whitetails and LOTS OF 300 lb or less hogs with one @ 341lbs. I shot everything that I have mentioned above with the 110 gr. Brass Controlled Chaos or 115gr Copper Controlled Chaos - 1to 8" twist, 16" spiral fluted barrel with a few different type of muzzle brakes on it, the AR-15 with Geisselle 3lbs+/- super single stage trigger and Geisselle 3-wire braided buffer spring, titanium pin, BCG, Carbon Fiber handguard, and it has dropped EVERY animal except for a single deer that took a single falling step forward... shots were from roughly 35 out to 140 yds with one coyote shot at 200. I like Liberty Ammunition's 96gr. Animal Instinct bullet for coyotes, deer, or hogs up to 300lbs. It is chronographed right at 2550-2570fps. in my .300 blackout. ACCURATE & ABSOLUTELY DEVA"DAMN"STATING OUT TO 250 FOR ME...
Quick question: After browsing the Lehigh website, it struck me that they offer brass and copper bullets in very similar weights of the same calibers. What's the difference in your experience?
Would you use these for deer hunting? I was going to go with the 125 SST but don’t know if I can get good enough Velocity to reliably expand them out of 8.5 inch barrel
Yes, I think the 115gr Lehigh would work on deer. The only thing I have against them is that they shed weight. The front of the bullet fragments by design and the base of the bullet penetrates. I prefer bullets that retain weight, but many people like the fragmenting style of expansion. When I went hog hunting with supers I chose the 120gr Barnes TAC-TX and they performed beyond my expectations. There is also a 110gr Barnes TAC-TX that would probably be a better choice for your 8.5" barrel. They have an extremely low minimum expansion velocity, so they are perfect for 300 Blackout. They are extremely expensive, but if you just stick to Winchester 296 or H110 it won't take that many to work up your load. I have videos on both the 110 and the 120 version so maybe that will help you get started. Good luck! Also, Barnes has load data on their website: www.barnesbullets.com/files/2016/03/300AACBlackoutV6ForWeb.pdf
DUDE, JUST DO IT... I WILL NEVER USE ANYTHING ELSE... EVER. OH MY GOD... INCREDIBLE RESULTS FROM THE BULLET ON WHITETAILS AT 0 to 200+ yards out... Wow...is all I can say about them
Fragments, dumps MASSIVE amounts of energy and if the animal even can run at all, I have had a 100% average on every shot being a complete pass through from any and EVERY shot angle I have taken out to 200yds....
I received the barrel yesterday and plan to start working on it today. It's raining like hell today so I probably won't get to shoot until tomorrow. That means the first video will probably be up Sunday or Monday.
It looks like a great scale. I've had a chance to see them in stores but never actually use one. It has a couple improvements over my old 505. The adjustment foot looks easier to use and I think the poise is labeled on both sides so you can use it right or left handed. I would buy one without hesitation!
gunman9090 I have both the new RCBS M500 (made in China) and an older RCBS 502 by Ohaus.(Made in America) And I can tell you surprisingly the M500 works equally as well and holds zero great. It's a solid purchase.
When you are showing us the C.O.A.L. with your micrometer, it would be good if you didn't wave your hand in front of the micrometer's screen so that we can actually SEE what the micrometer's reading is.
300-mp and 125 gr nosler is giving me the best velocity with 125 out of 14.5 pistol gas 1-7 twist averaging 2 ,275 f.p.s 1 1/2 moa at 100 yrs with the Lehigh 115 gr and w296 it's only Give Me only 2282
They wouldn't have enough velocity to properly expand most bullets so there's probably not much interest out there. They would be a lot of fun for plinking, though. I know I have some videos with 168gr supers. I might try some 180's sometime.
+Johnny's Reloading Bench that'd be awesome to see some alternative powder/bullet combinations. I just loaded some 180gr SST's with 18.5gr of accurate 1680. Going to run them across the magetospeed this weekend and see where I'm at.
I love this channel! Thx JRB!!
Welcome back! Hope you are doing better.Thanks for this video!

These do amazing damage to wild pigs! My preferred bullet for my self defense 40rd magazines!
First 300 Blackout bullet I ever reloaded ! Sweet
Know some people in West Liberty. Great video!
I love your channel bud. I want that Redding T7 so bad though. I might have to get it for myself for Christmas.
great vid, as usual. Keep it boss! 🖒

that is why I prefer to use my Brown& Sharpe analog calipers for reloading, but your zero can be screwed on that too if you are not careful

Was using you tips as I plan to use H110 as they recommend, Yet I heard W296 is the same powder. Hope I can get the same results as I do with there factory ammo.
i try h110 but im getting better velocity and group using hodgon lil gun.. great hogs rounds..
296 for the win!!!!!

their test data is on a 16" open barrel. you have a suppressor and they are known to very slightly increase fps averages

have you heard about the 375 stalker, from saturn barrels, looks like a really good reloading wildkat
nice!
I love following along on this reloading journey with you. What part of KY are you in?
Thanks, man! I am up in the NE part of the state.
Johnny's Reloading Bench Ashland area? I've got family down in Paintsville/Prestonsburg and lived there for a few years but I'm back in NE Indiana now
18.5 with both seem to be the ones with the short bbl. The longer seems to like it all

Glade to see those bullet runing realy good. Wonder how do on game animals
I know how feel, I love a good sexy cartridge
A little help. That cron graph hanging off the end of your barrel defeats the purpose of free float barrel so you can take that for what its worth. I wouldn’t trust it when the barrel harmonics are getting tampered with.
27:37 Come for the load data. Stay for guest appearance by Thing from Adams Family.
My groups are much better with the chrono off. It changes my point of impact slightly, could be a mental thing but I definitely get better groups with it off.

Unless you are match shooting or squirrel hunting, all those would work for hogs, deer, and antelope.
I may have missed it. What are the twist rates on each barrel?
Both barrels are 1:8
What distance were you shooting at and what are your thoughts on LiL gun with the 115 Cc?
Do you think that bullet and load would work well on large hogs.
Uhhh... yeah... it's not only good for them, it's seriously just DEVASTATING to anything it hits. I'd use it on a bear or an elk after shooting 6 coyotes, 15 whitetails and LOTS OF 300 lb or less hogs with one @ 341lbs.

OH MY GOD... INCREDIBLE RESULTS FROM THE BULLET ON WHITETAILS AT 0 to 200+ yards out...
Wow...is all I can say about them
Fragments, dumps MASSIVE amounts of energy and if the animal even can run at all, I have had a 100% average on every shot being a complete pass through from any and EVERY shot angle I have taken out to 200yds....
BTW what primers are using SMRP or just SRP ?
I may have mised it but how far did u make the shots from
Has anyone reloaded the Midsouth 300 Blackout 125 Grain Solid Copper Hollow Point ? looking for some starting load data .
looks like a perfect deer, sheep , black bear cartridge
Johnny I’m having problems with the 110 controlled chaos, getting my bullet to see at 2.00. I’m crushing the case at 17 grains of H1 10. Why is this?
Come back to us Johnny
When do we get to see the white oak barrel?!
I received the barrel yesterday and plan to start working on it today. It's raining like hell today so I probably won't get to shoot until tomorrow. That means the first video will probably be up Sunday or Monday.
Johnny's Reloading Bench fanstastic! Looking forward to seeing what it can do!
Awesome, looking forward to it as well.
Any oft using 78 grain CQ bullets for home defense?
That Rainier barrel sucks! I have a 9" 300blk barrel and it loves these bullets!
What's your thoughts on the new rcbs m500 scale
It looks like a great scale. I've had a chance to see them in stores but never actually use one. It has a couple improvements over my old 505. The adjustment foot looks easier to use and I think the poise is labeled on both sides so you can use it right or left handed. I would buy one without hesitation!
gunman9090
I have both the new RCBS M500 (made in China) and an older RCBS 502 by Ohaus.(Made in America) And I can tell you surprisingly the M500 works equally as well and holds zero great. It's a solid purchase.
Lehigh defense just posted a link to this video on FB, hope they are sending you free bullets to test. LOL.
When you are showing us the C.O.A.L. with your micrometer, it would be good if you didn't wave your hand in front of the micrometer's screen so that we can actually SEE what the micrometer's reading is.
300-mp and 125 gr nosler is giving me the best velocity with 125 out of 14.5 pistol gas 1-7 twist averaging 2 ,275 f.p.s 1 1/2 moa at 100 yrs with the Lehigh 115 gr and w296 it's only Give Me only 2282
I always forget what distance you're shooting at...
So if you start scouring the web you'll quickly note a lack of 180gr supers. Let's start moving toward a heavy but slower super.
They wouldn't have enough velocity to properly expand most bullets so there's probably not much interest out there. They would be a lot of fun for plinking, though. I know I have some videos with 168gr supers. I might try some 180's sometime.
+Johnny's Reloading Bench that'd be awesome to see some alternative powder/bullet combinations. I just loaded some 180gr SST's with 18.5gr of accurate 1680. Going to run them across the magetospeed this weekend and see where I'm at.
Speed does the damage. I'd rather have a lightweight expanding bullet at 2000+ fps vs. A heavy bullet at 1700 fps.
Just paid $75 aus for 20 rounds in australia
How many yards?
but a 200 gr. at 300 yards out of an ar15 , that is ballistically effective
JB, I started a RUclips channel and did a little build series on an AR Pistol that you should check out. Thanks!
