The only factory ammo I shot before going to reloads was the Barnes VOR-TX (110 grain). I got into 300Blk really early in the game and it was the only available ammo at the time. Very good round, reliable and accurate. Still have a few boxes of that ammo laying around.
Really haven't shot much 300Blk. Still working on those 500 rounds and they were made about 4 years ago. Since getting my Tavors I don't like AR-15s any more. I'm really into bullpups now (keep trying to justify buying a SRS-A1 lol). I probable will get back into 300Blk when I get a Tavor SAR or X-95 in 300Blk. Most likely would get a X-95 in 300Blk and SBR it. IWI is now selling the factory short sight rail, short hand guard and thin butt pad that go on the select fire X-95 so people can SBR X-95s. A X-95 SBR in 300Blk would be epic.

Just to give you an idea on how short a X-95 SBR would be:
My 16.5" barreled Bushmaster ACR vs my 16.5" Tavor SAR
Similar length of pull, ACR stock fully extended.
ACR stock fully collapsed (similar length to a 16" AR-15 with it's stock fully collapsed)
16.5" barreled Tavor SAR vs 13" barreled select fire X-95
