Been playing with the TC Encore Pistol and want to put my TBAC 30BA on a 30 caliber pistol for strictly subsonic stuff. Looks like I've narrowed the choice down to a pistol barrel made by MGM (Match Grade Machine Works) in 300 AAC BLK (8 twist), or go with a .308 Win (10 twist) pistol barrel and load my own subs. Barrel will be 15", and threaded for the brake. Keeping in mind chamber pressures, internal ballistics, external ballistics, and terminal ballistics... What would you choose and why?
I seem to be leaning toward the .308 Win due to the fact that I can also load hunting rounds and extend my range without the suppressor more so than the 300 Blk.
Leaving all other factors aside (yes I reload) let me hear your thought process on which you would choose and why. Which would allow better terminal ballistics on game?
I just found out that GA House and Senate passed a bill allowing hunting with suppressors. The bill awaits the Gov's John Hancock, which he is expected to sign. Primary use will be for quiet hunting of critters (hogs and deer).
Thanks in advance.
