Subsonic loads, anybody use them?
      05/10/14 10:00 AM

Thought I would see if any other board members shoot dedicated subsonic loads. Outside of paper punching and highly specialized situations they don't have a lot of value. Hey are a crowd pleaser at the range though.

I've been shooting .308 and 300AAC loads suppressed and it's a lot of fun. The .308 is in a DTA Covert (16" 1:8" twist), Lapua brass, 200gr Lapua subsonic bullet, 10gr Trail Boss and CCI magnum primers have yielded 1/4" groups for me at 100yds. Suppressed it sounds like an air rifle. With a 200yd zero for regular loads this gives me 3.8mils drop at 100yds. The 300AAC is new and I haven't gotten too far into it yet, it's in an AR platform and the bolt and buffer noise dominates.
