Thread: Reloading subsonic 7.62x39

[QUOTE=PommyMcPomFace; the main use would be at the range at nothing over 150m. I have for a long while been interested in developing a sub load for this caliber. I think 7.62x39 lends it self to subsonic speeds, like the 300 blackout. Because of the smaller size case. And you are only giving up 1300 FPS on it’s normal performance. With the small amount of anti feeling with guns and shooting in NZ at the moment. Also shooting at rabbits etc in a semi rural area is probably best done with minimal noise. It would be good to have that option. I’m just worried about developing the load. With the obvious of the load not getting the pill out of the barrel 😋. I have a friend with a crony and I will definitely start with working down my loads. Scary stuff when you start from scratch. Cheers for responding to my post, Brent
