    Terminal ballistics of subsonic .308 bullets

    Good info! To add to this study! I have experienced many hogs running off with a sub out of a 300 bo at 65 to 100. Closer shots seemed to achieve the objective, they seem to fall in there tracks. Longer distance the subsonic. 30 cal has time to slow down enough that the penitration is flawed and...

    300 Ham'r Velocity Not Up To Expectations

    I am currently tooling around with A1680 along with some hornady 110gr and some leighieh total chaos 110gr. I have not fired any yet but had a friend tell me he was using this with the total chaos bullet and it was at 2400 to 2500 fps. I have to find time to get to the range to know what mine...

    300 Ham'r Velocity Not Up To Expectations

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the higher velocity is in the 110gr bullets where the heavier bullets can loose velocity with higher pressure etc. I would say try the magnum primer first before going to lighter bullet. Also some of those velocity charts are from bolt gun test so be sure...
