Hi guys!
I'm looking at making a suppressed, subsonic only 300 Blackout. I want it to be reasonably quiet (if someone else is shooting, my shots are invisible) or whisper quiet while balancing good barrel length and can length. I don't see this gun being used past 50 yards, 75 is stretching it...
I was pondering the purpose for a subsonic .308 round when I saw a lawn wrecking armidillo in my front yard last night around 11pm. Not wanting to wake the neighbors or ricochet a bullet into someones car, I decided to try the subs. The 175 smk with 10gr of trailboss will devastate a 'dillo...
I just loaded a few rounds of .308 using 10.0gr trailboss and a 175SMK. I was very pleased, I never thought a centerfire rifle could be this quiet. I don't have a can and I believe it is still quieter than my 17HMR. I didn't chrony any of them or shoot for a group, I was just testing the load...
