    Subsonic 300BLK Noise levels

    Hi all,

    Got around to firing my 300BLK AR15 for the first time tonight and I'm a bit concerned over how loud it is. I was shooting 220gr american eagle subsonics out of a 14.5" barrel with a waitaki engineering can and the rounds sounded like a supersonic 22lr/maybe slightly louder. Does anyone have any input on this? Is it a case of needing a more expensive can? I've been told the 300BLK can/should be around a subsonic 22LR or quieter.

    Cheers,
