Subsonic 223 bullet expanding3/18/2023 The Howa 308 with the 20" pipe and the 10 round detachable mag arrived today but I didn't have time to mess with it (next week) !īut all in all other then expansion/penetration tests I am looking at about two more weeks and I just might be done ! And I'll most likely be trying the Nosler 60 grain Ballistic Tip in the 223 to replace the V Max. Need to do some more with the Trueshot bullet in the Savage. Īll the jacketed loads are looking pretty decent in both 308's with the 220 Sierra and in the 223 with the 60 V Max. With 4.7 grains of Trailboss my average for 6 shots was 1017 FPS and finally my average again for 6 shots with 5 grains of Trailboss was 1096. With the Remington 700 Tac in 223 with the Hornady 60 grain V Max I got a 6 shot average with 4.5 grains of Trailboss of 963 FPS. And finally with 15 grains of Trailboss I got a 6 shot average of 1070 FPS. With 14.5 grains of Trailboss I got an average of 1017 FPS for 6 shots. With the Remington 700 Tac 308 and the Sierra 220 with 13.5 grains of Trailboss I got an average of 963 FPS for 6 shots. With True Shot 200 grain RN GC bullet and 13.5 grains of Trailboss I got an average of 1302 FPS for 6 shots. With the True Shot 200 grain RN GC bullet and 13 grains of Trailboss I got an average of 1291 FPS for 6 shots. With the Sierra 220 and 15 grains of Trailboss I got an average of 1041 FPS for 6 shots. With the Sierra 220 grainer and 14.5 grains of Trailboss I was getting a 1013 FPS average for 6 shots. Made the trip to the range today as planned ! 35 Rem so I could use a larger bullet subsonic through a 9mm high pressure can, it shoots really well with a red dot sight and for standard ammo is just a bit over the ear safe point and the sound does not carry very far. 223 for the muzzel blast out in the field away from structure it really helps. The can on the 300 mag makes it a lot better (I still wear plugs w/o muffs on top) but haven’t shot it much, on my buddies 338 Lapua it make a vast difference. 30 caliber can, as it will work on 5.56 as well - have you tried this? (this would be assuming both were threaded 1/2 x28 300 Weatherby that i cant stand to shoot its so noisy )Īnother customer at my local class 3 emporium told me to buy a. Paladin, how well did the 300 Win Mag do when suppressed ? Did you still need hearing protection ? - i know you cant take those bruisers down subsonic - (asking because i have a spare Weatherby in. Not sure on specs or what they changed, but I do know they had modified it well out of normal specs.Paladin wrote: I have shot a few deer with suppressed weapons (mostly crop damage permits) from a MP-5SD to M-16s, M-14s, bolt guns in 308 and 300 WIN MAG quote] I think it would be grossly overgassed with normal ammo, probably beating itself up a bit. But the entire gas system on that Beck gun was highly modified so it would cycle the subsonic ammo. These barrels obviously have tight twist rates for the heavier, slower bullets and, from the sounds of it, perhaps a longer throat to clear larger projectiles and maybe a modified gas port (although it doesn’t look vastly oversized in the photos and, if the ammo really cycles a standard AR, it wouldn’t have to be oversized). One thing I did notice is that Allegiance claims their subsonic ammo runs a totally standard AR-15. But there’s no reason these Allegiance ones wouldn’t also work with normal ammo, and the text of their press release makes that pretty clear: “Coming soon the Allegiance subsonic barrel designed for subsonic and supersonic ammunition.” I’ve shot those Beck guns myself (video of the subsonic: ).
