    Subsonic 308 loads

    After reading a recent thread regarding trailboss alternatives for subsonic loads I obtained some titegroup powder and referred to the hodgdon load data for charge weights.

    Picked up some 190 sub x projectiles and using sako bras and some WLR primers got the following results.

    It was a really windy day so I am pretty happy with the groups at 50m while testing.

    Seemed very strange only using 8 grains of powder compared to the usual load I use of 44 grains with 2206h.

    I Removed the suppressor for the first couple shots to ensure the projectiles weren’t tumbling and to avoid any baffle strike and she was all good.

    Came up 7MOA from my usual load which is zeroed at 100m

    Will crack into some 100M plus testing once the wind buggers off.

    The Noise and recoil was next to nothing..
