Reloading 9mm

Hi All

Just put together a 9mm AR with suppressor and would like some advice on where to start with reloading. I need to put together some ammo that will be subsonic out of my carbine. Seems difficult to find much off the shelf and would like to tailor some to suit the rifle. Any advice on where to start with reloading would be great. (reloading novice) Also open to the idea of off the shelf ammo for the right price in the interim. Oh and I live in Auckland.

Thanks in Advance

I saw A video from gunworks shooting a subsonic ar 9mm, they had factory fiocchi ammo. Could be worth emailing them to find out where to get it from or possibly buy it from them

edit: ayyyyy http://www.gunworks.co.nz/shop/item/...158gr-fmj-x-50

As a hunting or plinking round?
Plinking is easy, getting the right projectile for decent terminal performance at subsonic launch speeds is more difficult, being a pistol round tho you should be in luck with heavy for cal expanding bullets that are "soft"

If you can be bothered casting your own, I use a lee 147gn mould and old flashing lead (with all the houses being pulled down/redone in chch it cheep right now) and a lee 1000 progresave press.

The gear was cheep as, all second hand except the mould.
And I'm making nice soft heavy pills almost for free. Can shoot the 9mm ar cheeper than good .22 ammo.

Hornady lists loads for 147gn bullets that range 750 - 1000fps. for pistols

I once sized some .358 150LRN down to .356 and ran them through a Glock. Cycled and were really accurate, from mem I think the loads I tried was 4.0 - 4.2gn Unique.

I'd like to get a 9mm upper one day too.

I run a 147gr plated projectile and 3gr of AP50 in my upper.
