I think trying to get anything consistently better better than 1 MOA on a 300 Blackout is a mute point anyway as its a ballistically challenged short range round in any case, its not designed to be uber accurate but fills a niche market. Mine is for 100m and less, although I know it will happily knock down Fig 11s on a 300m ETR all day long it ain't going to win any 200m plus matches over here. I will work up a subsonic load using Lapua 200 grain though just to see how accurate it is.
I reckon you have it about right for the UK, if that's your bag and good luck to you!
To my mind, .300 BLK is for one thing. Shooting people who need to be shot, quickly, decisively and quietly. And by buggery, there's enough of them in this world today....
But, if you understand it's speciality and it's individuality, there's no reason why you can't play with successfully, whilst considering it's severe limitations.
I also think it's somewhat telling that, arguably the producer of the most accurate out of the box rifle available today, Savage, dropped the idea of chambering their guns in .300 BLK as it couldn't achieve the accuracy the demand...
