Pros
Precision and Reliability
AAC Ammunition, across the board, has been a reliable and accurate ammunition. The OTM projectile is designed to expand upon impact for maximum effectiveness. The design and manufacturing process ensure that each round offers both precision and reliability. Shooters can expect consistent performance and sub-MOA accuracy, whether at the range or in a hunting scenario. The bullet's open tip design ensures maximum effectiveness upon impact. Keep in mind however, if you have your firearms zeroed for supersonic ammunition, you'll need to know your holds, or re-zero for subsonic ammunition.
Affordability Without Compromise
AAC makes it a point to offer this high-quality ammunition at an affordable price, ensuring that superior performance is accessible to all. This commitment means that more shooters can experience the benefits of top-tier ammunition without financial strain. Additionally, AAC and Palmetto State Armory do not favor government contracts over civilian sales, a massive benefit in my opinion.
American Made Quality
Produced in Columbia, SC, the Open Tip Match is 100% American made, supporting domestic manufacturing while adhering to the highest standards of quality. The use of AAC Brass-Boxer primed, fully reloadable casings not only speaks to the sustainability and value of this ammunition but also to its reliability and performance.

Cons
Limited Distribution
The primary limitation of the 220gr 300 Blackout Open Tip Match is its exclusive availability through Palmetto State Armory. While PSA is renowned for its excellent customer service and quick shipping, broader distribution would make this outstanding ammunition accessible to an even wider audience. However, this exclusivity does not detract from the quality and performance that AAC delivers with this product.
Conclusion
The AAC 220 Grain Open Tip Match 300 Blackout is a standout offering for anyone seeking reliable, effective, and affordable ammunition. Its design focuses on precision and reliability, combined with the precision manufacturing processes AAC is known for. While availability is limited to Palmetto State Armory, the combination of AAC's commitment to quality and PSA's reputable service ensures that this ammunition is well worth seeking out. Whether for hunting, target shooting, or self-defense, the Open Tip Match 300 Blackout is a choice that American shooters can be proud of.
