8.6 Blackout 190gr Solid Copper Fracturing Projectiles (Qty 50)

What this is

This is the 8.6 Blackout 190gr Solid Copper Fracturing Projectiles (Qty 50).

This is the 190gr solid copper fracturing projectile for 8.6 Blackout, our flagship caliber, sold bare for handloaders. 8.6 Blackout follows the same design logic as 300 Blackout, one case loaded to two very different roles, but at a considerably larger bullet diameter.

Supersonic role in 8.6 Blackout

At 190gr this is the lighter, faster end of the caliber, built for supersonic velocity and rapid energy transfer through the fracturing design rather than deep penetration. This is the weight to load for a standard, non-suppressed or non-subsonic 8.6 Blackout build.

190gr versus our subsonic 342gr

We also stock a 342gr subsonic expanding projectile in this caliber, close to double the weight, built specifically to stay under the speed of sound for a quiet suppressed build. Use our ballistics calculator to compare expected trajectory and velocity between the two before you commit a load.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the supersonic or subsonic 8.6 Blackout weight? 190gr is the lighter, supersonic-role weight in 8.6 Blackout. For a quiet suppressed subsonic build, use our heavier 342gr subsonic expanding projectile instead.

How does 8.6 Blackout differ from 300 Blackout for this kind of split? Both calibers use the same light-for-supersonic, heavy-for-subsonic logic, but 8.6 Blackout runs a considerably larger diameter bullet, so its subsonic weights (up to and past 300gr) are far heavier than 300 Blackout’s for the same design purpose.

Is this bullet lead free? Yes, solid copper construction, no lead core.
