Hey, MarkCO, were you trying to build a lookalike Star Wars storm trooper rifle?
hopefully this doesn't take us into the weeds, but I have to ask.
I believe that TTAG did a SBR study of 7.62x39 in an AR platform and found that it kept a large portion of it's energy despite a really, really shortened barrel, so I think that a SBR in 300Blackout makes sense. However, I still think that a 6.8 SBR would have more energy than either. Has anyone seen well-documented stats on SBR 6.8 energy levels? maybe i'm making a bad assumption.
