Daniel Defense DDM4 Hunter Semi-Auto Rifle 300 AAC Blackout 16" Barrel 1-30Rd Mag Kryptek Highlander Polymer Finish
Accurate, tough, and hard-hitting, the Daniel Defense line of Hunter rifles takes the best aspects of Daniel’s proven designs and tailor fit them to the modern sportsman. Built around a 16” Cold Hammer Forged barrel, , the Hunter 300 Blackout offers precision and accuracy with a wide variety of projectiles. Shielding the barrel and Carbine gas system is the MFR 15.0 free-floating handguard. With a continuous picatinny rail on top and M-Lok attachment on the sides and bottom, there is plenty of room for any accessory that your hunt may require. The barrel is threaded in 5/8x24 TPI and capped with a knurled thread protector which can be easily removed should you want to attach a suppressor or other muzzle device. The Hunter 300 Blackout comes from the factory with a Geissele Super Semi-Automatic, 2-stage trigger and an ambidextrous safety selector. The new independently ambi GRIP-N-RIP Charging Handle accommodates left- and right-handed shooters and is engineered for suppressed fire, with anti-gas features that redirect gas flow upward and away from the face and operator. The Hunter comes standard with Daniel Defense Buttstock and Pistol Grip and is finished in a vivid hydro-dipped Kryptek Highlander camo pattern

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 300 AAC Blackout (300 BLK) was developed in 2009/2010 by Advanced Armament Corporation and approved by Sporting Arms and Ammunition Institute (SAAMI) in 2011. Based on the 223 Remington case necked up to 30-caliber, it was intended for the M4 Carbine and designed to function in standard AR15/M16 magazines. Thus converting an AR to 300 AAC Blackout requires nothing more than an upper receiver group. Dimensionally it is identical to the 300 Whisper, but the 300 Blackout is fully standardized. Supersonic and subsonic ammunition is manufactured, with a 125-grain bullet producing 2215 feet per second, while the subsonic load uses a heavier bullet at much lower velocity: 220-grain bullet at 1080 fps. Military applications are obvious; as a sporting cartridge performance is similar to the 7.62x39.
