NTXshooter Posted May 9, 2014 Report Posted May 9, 2014 Has anyone tried this ammo? I have seen it at my LGS and on line. I just wonder how it performs function and ballistic wise? Is it an alternative to 300 blk?
gnatshooter Posted May 9, 2014 Report Posted May 9, 2014 I went to gunbot.net and looked for subsonic .308 ammo. One of the more interesting rounds is the -- a hunting round. It comes with a caution, that "these rounds will not cycle a semi-auto firearm." This may be a common issue with subsonics in .308, although I can say that subsonic .22lr cycles just fine in my Ruger 10/22. Also interesting is that a lot of these rounds consider themselves to be "match" ammo. Here's the selection I found at gunbot: 20rds - 308 Win. Lapua 200gr.
