This relatively innocuous cartridge, with its low. Since a bedroom does not attach to the muzzle of my gun, I don't have to pay the jack booted terror squad $200.00 or even come within gagging distance of the air they breath. 223 is also the rifle cartridge of choice for military and law enforcement tactical professionals as well as civilians in over 35 states to use with suppressed firearms because the bullet does not reach or exceed the speed of sound and does not create a loud sonic boom as it travels. The nearest range is about 1 hour drive from here, and I get an itchy trigger finger between trips to the range. It is perfectly legal to shoot a gun out here in the country, but gun shots tend to piss off my guests. We use a 69 grain Sierra Boat Tail HP with 4.5 grains of IMR Trail Boss powder. I live outside of the city limits but I own an RV park. 22 through that 3" window opening, and I am starting to get bored with the. I have run about 5000 rounds of sub-sonic. If the bullet does not break the sound barrier, the bedroom itself acts as the suppressor and muffles the sound enough that the shot cannot be heard outside. Occasionally, we will temporarily publish load data. I have figured out that I can open the window about 3 inches in my back bedroom for the bullet to go through. Hornady Manufacturing Company develops and publishes reloading data for the Handbook of Cartridge Reloading. This bullet will stabilize in a 1:11 twist barrel or faster (1:10, 1:9, 1:8, 1:7, etc). This is with new high-end Norma brass and Sierra 75 grain HP bullet. Neither of those phenominas are desireable. New By request, I recently developed a 243 Winchester SUBSONIC round shooting the 75 grain Sierra HP at 1030 fps in 22 barrel. Any speed over that will generate a sonic "crack" and make the bullet "wobble" as it enters and exits the sound barrier. Long grooves in its gilding metal jacket.

In the subsonic arena weight is where its at, since your velocity is fixed, more weight more energy. And a 223 bullet will be more aerodynamic. The Sub-X bullet used in Subsonic Rifle features a lead core. 65gr is better than the 40gr used in a 22lr subsonic. Subsonic Handgun utilizes tried-and-true XTP® bullets that expand reliably at subsonic velocities. In reference to one of the earlier comments, a bullet has to stay under 1150 ft per second to be sub sonic. Hornady® Subsonic Ammunition designed for accuracy and performance below the speed of sound now comes in both rifle and handgun loads. I am not experienced enough with reloading to play around with different loads.
