300 AAC Blackout Barrels
« on: December 26, 2012, 08:04:42 AM »
I'm having trouble with the search function so I'm posting this question.  I heard NEF/H&R was building 300 AAC BLK rifles in 2013.  Any truth to that?

I have more guns than I need, but not as many as I want.

I dont think H&R has barrels, you must buy the 300 from an ACC distributor.

The only accessory barrels that may be available are listed on the H&R website. As Jim said, the 300BLK is only available as a complete rifle from AAC distributors/dealers.

I wander if the barrels will be available in the future. I think it would be a fun round to have. Rick!

Don't hold your breath for it to happen any time soon, they've been real good about dropping offerings for several years, but not making new offerings, the entire Topper line was discontinued for 2012.  :-\
