      I looked around the store and did not see anything in stock for the 300 Blackout. I think around .309 to .311 and around 150 grain. I have a Lee mold (I had to because the NOE website showed out of stock) The Lee mold is dropping boolits to fat in the nose area and I have to load a shorter COL and I do not want to compress the powder. I also am spoiled and just love NOE molds.

      I am using H-110 powder and they show 1785 to 1901 FPS so I think I would want a gas check. I powder coat.  I have loaded some of the Lee but I do not like the boolit touching the groves (AR-15). I have tried 5 of each and found 15 grain gave me 1861 fps and 15.8 grain gave me 1903. The 15.0 (starting load) gave me my best group. I am only plinking with these I don’t hunt anymore.

        I recently purchased the 311-150-sp plain base for my light 300 blackout loads. Have not got to setting it up and loading some but, you might want to look at that mold. I was also planning on powder coating, and if needed adding a gas check using pop cans. I would say once you get the noe mold, that Lee will start collecting dust. The noe molds really are top notch.
        Good luck in your search.

          Also check out the HTC309-153-SP mold.  It works well if you powder coat bullets.

            I have been using the 311-150-SP 311414 GC mold and have made and fired about 600 of them so far and they are excellent. These molds are actually in stock right now I just checked. I am getting around 1700 FPS, I have been using the GC’s purchased on this site and powder coating them. They shoot excellent out to 300 meters.

              I just got that mould a while ago and finally got some bullets cast up. I plan on using it in a few different calibers including bolt gun in .300 BO. I am curious what load you are using in .300 BO?

                sorry haven’t checked the forums on here in a while, I started with H110 ending up at 14.9 grains which is working pretty well out to 300 meters on a 14 inch gong. I just finished a couple test loads using lil gun and have a 3-4 FPS SD (5 rounds) but haven’t shot them for accuracy yet. I will post when I finish testing.

                  I also use about 15 gr of h110/296 which seems to work well with my alloy.
