Subsonic .223 loads

I am interested in a subsonic load for home defense. I have researched the subject and there are a number of opinions. From what I understand, the lighter weight bullets will not cycle and they are single shot only, whereas the heavier bullets have a better chance at normal operation. I have some 77gr SMK and some 85gr Barn Burner bullets. I have a plan to work up, or work down, a load but I think it would involve too many rounds and a lot of time. So, without having to re-invent the wheel, does anyone have a load they have used that cycles the gun properly and remains subsonic? I have a .223 suppressor, and the gun is a 10.5 inch AR pistol. Before I get hate mail and too many other options for gun type and caliber, this is my plan and I would like to see it through. If my testing does not produce a viable round then I will look for alternatives. Thanks for you help.

Suppressor and BC

Dumb question about cans and BC, but wanted to ask before I head out and do something stupid.

Will a can, properly installed and sized, have any affect on the BC of a bullet? I'm hoping to get time on the AB mobile lab here soon at a match and want to get a CDM for a gun I'll be shooting 95% suppressed, but it's not the gun I'm shooting in the match so my can will be on that match gun. Hoping to avoid switching things around match day if there's no need.

Trump may offer money and a free plane ticket to illegals to self deport.

I'm not wild about bribing criminals, thats like countries paying the Vikings or Mongols not to attack them, and a sign of weakness. I don't like it at all.

However, it might be cheaper and more realistic than having ICE round them up because at the current rate, they're not being captured and deported at near the rate they're reproducing and multiplying.

I'm just afraid it will be large amounts of money spent with half-ass results. How about arrest illegals and confiscate and sell everything they own as an incentive to leave on their own.

Accessories FN Magazines Five-seveN MK II 5.7x28 15-20RD & 3-10RD Package! - OEM - $450

Very little use if any on these MKII magazines. To be honest it’s just too much trouble to try and sell them individually so I am selling as one complete package, 15, 20-round and 3, 10-round magazines, 18 in total. Why spend your range time loading magazines? Load them up in the comfort of your own home and spend your time at the range actually shooting! This is great package for high-volume Five-seveN shooters! I’ll cover shipping/Insurance in CONUS. No trades, thanks! $450 takes them. PPFF or Zelle.
(These retail for $50 a piece.)

Optics WTS/WTT Trijicon Credo 1-8 FFP MRAD

-Credo 1-8 FFP MRAD (NOT the lower tier HX model) with Hammy Prints scope caps (and original Trijicon scope caps)
-Badger 1.70 34mm with top mounted RMR plate with 509t x2 Red reticle
-vortex bubble level

Has original box and paperwork. Taken very good care of, glass is flawless. I did tape it with goon tape, and other than the two scuffs on the turrets the body is mint. Extremely slept on scope, I just find myself needing less magnification and prefer SFP for what I’m doing.

Payed over $1300+ (with receipts) just for the scope alone. Selling for $1475 as a package shipped tyd. PayPal preferred. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for reading.

Trades:
-vortex razor gen 2 1-6 mrad
-badger ordnance c1 1.70” mount
-Holoson 507comp red reticle

SOLD (WTS) Sphur SICS Chassis System - REM 700 SA - Two-tone Cerakote

This was one of my early cerakote projects - a two tone grey. The chassis has some pitting in to because I left it in the solvent too long. With that in mind, it's an awesome chassis at a very reasonable price. Let me know if you have any questions.
