.300 Blackout Trajectory Calculator
The .300 Blackout offers AR-15 compatibility with .30 caliber punch, though its rainbow trajectory limits effective range. With a 125-grain supersonic load at 2,185 fps and a 100-yard zero, expect about 8.2 inches of drop at 200 yards, 29.4 inches at 300 yards, and 68 inches at 400 yards. Energy drops below 555 ft-lbs by 300 yards, making it a 200-yard cartridge for deer-sized game. The .300 Blackout shines inside 150 yards, especially suppressed.
Use the calculator to match your specific load. Click "Modify Calculation" to enter your bullet weight, muzzle velocity, and ballistic coefficient. Supersonic and subsonic loads have dramatically different trajectories—subsonic 220-grain loads drop much faster but work well suppressed at close range. Factor in your specific ammunition choice for accurate holdover data.
Compare up to 5 different loads. The current caliber (.300 Blackout) is pre-selected for the first load.
