I had heard there was a push to legalize the 300 blackout for deer hunting in Indiana.
Is this true and if so has there been any positive progression?
Thanks
Rifles with cartridges that fire a bullet of .357-inch diameter or larger; have a minimum case length of 1.16 inches; and have a maximum case length of 1.8 inches are legal to use only during the deer firearms and special antlerless seasons.
But you were just looking for that reason to get a .458 SOCOM upper for your AR, right?
I would love for them to legalize 6.5 Grendel
Right you are!! I would love to give a 458 a try....
I knew it! How can you not get even a little excited over something like this:
THAT sounds like a great project! What chambering is the donor gun?I bought a Rock River upper in 458. Took two deer last year with it. I will be doing a bolt action conversion on a Stevens 200 action for this coming season. can't wait til that one is done!
So you can hunt deer with a 300 blackout ar pistol though right?
I really hope so.....because this would be a great excuse for getting a new AAC 9" upper and a pistol lower
THAT sounds like a great project! What chambering is the donor gun?
The Stevens is a .308. The SOCOM uses a .308 bolt face, so the action is good to go. Simple barrel swap.... and new composite stock, possibly a trigger, new scope... and a trip to Diamond Collision for some Cerakote. Just wish the barrel would get here.

Sweet! That really sounds like a fun project.
INGO'er fireball doing the barrel?
Yep. They are on backorder. I'll send you a PM when its done and maybe we can do some accuracy testing.
