I have a 7.5" 5.56 upper that I run on an M16 and SBR lower. It's pretty cool to pull the KX3 off and shoot at night to see the massive fireball, but mostly it's a useless play toy.
I'm thinking of making it an 8" 300 Blackout to run with my SOCOM can. However I'm not sure it's worth it, as I probably won't do much with it other than plinking and the occasional hog hunt.
Some considerations:
>I don't reload and am not much interested in it
>All I'd need is a new barrel and a mount for my SOCOM and I'd be good-to-go. No new cans, optics, registered lowers or an upper.
>I have other projects that selling the upper in 5.56 would finance.
Does anyone have first hand experience with a 300 Blackout and does it do something amazing, or is it more just a cool thing?
