I've got 1 of these in 308 must say the rifle did not group that well when using a bipod when I did load development for it. Shot over a bag I found a big difference in group size big improvement.
Honestly, I'm not a fan of the 300 AAC/Blackout. Sub-sonic loads can have issues with expansion, a friend of mine has a straight-pull SGC Speedmaster, which he re-barrelled in Blackout and he uses 110-grain bullets, which, he reckons are much better for foxing and also on the range.
Only just noticed at the end i wasnt watching gunmart tv🤣, nice little option for a compact reasonably priced rifle. Ive owned a rossi 223 before, not sure would i go back to ss. That was with the intention of night foxing though and never got much use unlike my current tikka t3x and bergata b14. For stalking i could see a single shot as a more viable option! Guess the 16" 8-twist would be more versatile regarding non lead but no doubt kick harder. Would be hell of a short.

Have you tried subsonic 308 rounds
Boy what a silencer
Yes, way too big, but it's the only 5/8x24 UNEF can I have, as Ive never had the need for one as much as the more common imperial and metric threads.
Do you recommend the 300 aac as I've swapped it for my 223

Yep, very much an acquired taste, but also a bit addictive.
