Thread: Help needed for 308 subsonic load

I could shoot out to 75yards with the 7mm(08) projectiles accurately in my old rifle using 7gr trailboss.

Been asked to load a 308 for pigs. The dude has been using his normal deer cartridges but now thinks his dogs will get deaf. Have you tried it on pigs? Cast bullets do the trick?
