[QUOTE="DRock, post: 1888875, member: 109187"] I use Trailboss with .308 subsonics. It was trial and error on getting the load to be as close to the sonic barrier as possible. I also shoot with a can but I did all of my load work without the suppressor as I was concerned that pressure changes could lead to the projectile striking a baffle. Once I was convinced the projectile was flying true, then I added the suppressor. This may be an unnecessary step but my rule is always "Better safe than sorry." There are some older reloading manuals that give subsonic load data but I can imagine 30-30 would not be listed. It might give you an idea though of what powders and how much they are reducing that from the full power load to get the subsonic velocity. Good luck- sounds like a big project :) [/QUOTE]
