Description

Starline Brass 8.6 Blackout x100

Utilizing a .338” diameter bullet, the 8.6 Blackout was designed as a suppressed, subsonic round capable of firing a heavier projectile than the 300 Blackout. It can also be used in supersonic applications as well. 
 

Best Suited For

  • Reloading 8.6 Blackout rifle ammunition

    • AR-10 style rifles
    • Bolt-action rifles
  • Ideal for:
    • Suppressed shooting (subsonic heavy bullets)
    • Medium to large game hunting
    • Precision and experimental load development
  • Particularly suited for shooters who:
    • Want heavy .338 projectiles at subsonic speeds
    • Are building custom or modern rifle setups

When To Use It

  • When you need new, high-quality brass for:

    • Consistent accuracy and reliability
    • Replacing formed brass (from 6.5 Creedmoor)

FAQs

Q: Is this brass ready to load?
A: Yes, but best practice includes:

  • Inspecting cases
  • Light resizing (optional)
  • Chamfering/deburring

Q: Why use Starline instead of forming brass?
A: Factory brass:

  • Saves time and tooling
  • Offers more consistent dimensions
  • Reduces risk of chambering issues

Reddit users note forming from 6.5 Creedmoor can require extra steps like trimming or neck work.

Q: Is 8.6 Blackout only for subsonic use?
A: No. It was designed primarily for subsonic suppressed shooting but also supports supersonic loads.

Q: How does it compare to .300 Blackout?
A:

  • Fires heavier bullets (.338 vs .308)
  • Delivers more energy at subsonic speeds
  • Requires larger platforms (AR-10 vs AR-15)

Q: How many reloads can I expect?
A: Depends on load pressure and care, but Starline brass is generally known for multiple reload cycles with proper handling.
