[QUOTE="new2mud, post: 2420601, member: 24831"] Primary limitation with subsonic in .308 Win is typical 1:10 barrel twists (on the fast end) limit the ability to stabilize the 220 or heavier bullets at subsonic speeds. I’ve had some hit paper targets already yawing (!!) The 1:8 or even faster twists commonly found in 300BLK stabilize these heavier bullets better. But subsonic out of a suppressed centerfire bolt gun will make even your die hard velocity-freak shooting/hunting buddies giggle like school girls. You can’t help but grin. [/QUOTE]
