Ozark Ammo
« on: January 03, 2016, 12:20:14 PM »
They just released their new lineup for the 300 BLK. I ordered a box of the 110 gr HP and the 135 gr HP to see if they're more accurate than the 147 gr FMJ's (in mine). Keeping my fingers crossed since they've got the best prices by far.

My rifle didn't like their 147 gr FMJ, so went back to buying the high dollar stuff with lighter bullets. It's pretty accurate around the 125 gr area. Looking forward to testing the 110 and 135 gr stuff whenever they get it shipped out. .45 to .50 cents a shot is still high to me, but way better than the big boy's prices.

It's also reman brass, which helps with cost, but I don't have any issues with that.

Tried the new Ozark. Both the 110 and 135 gr refused to feed. I could chamber the first round when charging it, but no follow-up shots Just bang, 'click.' Fortunately, I also carried a box of Remington 120 gr with me, so after the feed issues I was able to shoot 20 rounds of Remington, so the trip wasn't totally wasted.  :main_cry:

I really suspect the length of the bullet is the culprit so sent Ozark an email to see what they say. Here are some pics. Maybe some ammo experts out will chime in.

Remington 120 gr and Ozark 110 gr

I talk to a guy that reviewed this ammo, and he said no problems feeding, but he was using Pmags. So back to the range next weekend with my Pmags.
