The brass is a bit more finicky, and good quality brass is a must. I am finding out that not all brass is equal.
I personally love running sub rounds out of a 9mm can, saves me the 12+ month wait for a 30 Cal can. Not that I'm not waiting for water to boil, but still, a good 9mm can handle subsonic 300's.
Proof your magazines though. If you are running the heavier 220 grn bullets you might find your 5.56mm magazines protest. 220 grains can challenge mag's designed for a 55 grn especially if she has and 29 of her friends with her. Fortunately mag producers are strengthening the mag springs and designing 300 AAC specific mags.
Over all, I am glad I started to play with the 300 BO/ AAC.
As for sights, you know the deal. What range are you shooting for? A simple red dot could fit the bill. I have both a TR1 and a shorty EoTech that line up perfectly with my Troy Industry Diamond head sights.
The 300 BO World is your oyster,,,,

Did a lot of reading before making my reloading purchases and many here assisted, thanks again. I waited for months for Nosler to begin selling .300 WM brass again.

And from what I've read well worth the price.
Box, What ranges are you looking at while hunting pigs?
