He said he has lanes with a max range of 120-200 yards. That's within 300 blackout range for a deer. Personally, I wouldn't shoot over 175, but if you practice at those distances and you are comfortable shooting that range with that caliber, it will kill a deer at 200 with ease and will still kill at 250. Over 250, let them walk.

The 300blk and 6.5/6.8 don't even belong in the same sentence as each other. The 300blk is silent and the 6.5 is a Americanized version of the swede. Regarding the 300blk, 150 for deer (which is far further than mostneed it to be) and who gives a shite how far for hogs.

Looks like anything past 150 is pushing your luck.

What soco said.
With that said I have the Nikon Blackout scope and must say it is a great deal and a great set up for the 300 Blackout shooting either subsonic or supersonic.

Now if you were building a SBR 300 I would go with the Burris or Leupold red dot for CQB

I'm glad I bought 2 varix 111 Luepold 2.5x8 back awhile ago. These prices. I'm hearing on these optics are amazing. I also bought an ACOG so long ago the tritium is dead. It's a scope for an AR and that's it. IMHO.
