IF there is a stuck bullet waiting in the bore, the next shot is going to be more than a surprise. Then you have to manually eject the fired case and rack the action to load a full power round. As suppressed subsonics are freakin quiet, in a time of stress it may be difficult to notice a squib round. You are then taking a chance by shooting a subsonic round through a potentially dirty barrel, which can cause the bullet to stick in the bore. To switch from one ammo to another you have to rack the action and eject the live round, which then has to be picked up. Quick, versitile, nothing extra to buy, nothing to convert. You put the original mag back in and you now have full powered ammo. You switch mags (to a mag loaded with subsonic ammo) and fire that shot. You need want to fire A shot that absolutely has to be as quiet as possible. Use them at your own risk - your mileage may vary. Make sure you know what you're doing with reloading before trying these. I probably need to reduce it to 5.3 grains or so.Īll of these were shot in my Savage 10FP with 22" 1:9 barrel using a YHM 5.56 Phantom suppressor. I did some experimenting and found some other successful 223 loads, as follows: The load fizzled and I had a stuck bullet. I switched to CCI Benchrest primers - DON'T DO THIS. I tried this recipe using some Sierra 55 gr soft point boat tails and it worked fine. I called Hodgdon, and sure enough, they had some suggestions. The Accurate S1250 subsonic 223 loads have been discussed before, but I had not seen many other recipes.
