Should I use an adjustable gas block on 300 blackout?
We recommend fine tuning this setup with just an adjustable gas block. You’ll only need to run a standard carbine buffer and buffer spring with this setup. That will allow you to keep the gas tuned relatively low because there is less mass to move. In return the gun will be very smooth shooting.

Most subsonic Blackout ammo uses a bullet in the 200-grain range, and, of course, .308 diameter. Here’s my “house gun.” I trust it. Subsonic .300 Blackout is plenty powerful, in my estimation, and with radically better shootability than a higher-pressure carbine loading.

Most factory .300 Blackout subsonic loads are a little more powerful than a routine .45 ACP handgun loading, if we’re going on (the admittedly incomplete) calculated energy figures. So, if you think .45 ACP is a reliable choice for a defensive round, subsonic Blackout beats it.
Is the 300 Blackout a good cartridge for an AR-15?
Understatement: .300 Blackout, aka: AAC, is a popular cartridge among AR-15 fans.
