I want something that can pop a target a few hundred yards away thats also subsonic so i can silence the fuck out of it and shoot it in my backyard. My guess is that a heavier round will carry farther, but i also want it to be quiet after ive suppressed it. Thanks

Get a VSS.
>>34522412
.308 subsonic
>>34522420
This op, they're pretty cheap atm and would fit perfectly into that role.
>>34522432
What is a vss?
>>34522412
>Shoot it in my backyard
How many acres do you own?
>>34522432
Im intrigued by the vss, but from my researching its neither legal nor available in the fagited states
>>34523226
Alot
>>34522432
Local gun store had a few VSSs for $699 each. They had 9x39 ammo for $30 per hundred.
May pick one up this weekend.

Are you in the USA? Because where the fuck are you?
>>34523324
Where do u live? Theyre not legal in the us stop teasing me ivan

Will any 308 accept 308 subsonic?
>>34522412
300 blackout or 338 spectre.

Fits the mag and chamber, but you probably won't find a subsonic 308 load that will cycle an unmodified autoloader reliably.
Interesting and related, germans had 308 training ammo that was plastic and really really weak, and that cycled with a bolt that would make a G3 straight blowback instead of roller delayed.
>>34523399
Semi auto might not cycle.
>>34523399
if u want semi auto go for 300 blackout, if u have a bolt action then absolutely go for 308 subsonic
>>34523399
Bolt action, yes. Won't be likely to cycle a semi auto.
Also mind twist rate if you're going with heavier weight bullets.
>>34522424
.300 BLK uses .308 bullets at subsonic velocities; only thing is, it's optimized around subsonic velocities, and has barrels in the appropriate twist rates. Go .300.

Integrally suppressed russian spacegat in 9x39. Designed to reach out and defeat body armor despite being subsonic.
Handles like a typical AK.

.510 whisper
or another subsonic cartridge from ssk industries
>>34522412
Heavier bullets can carry the same energy as a lighter bullet while traveling slower, and heavy subsonic rounds can reach out to 200-300 easily and deal quite a bit.
A .45-70 or other brush gun subsonic would be wise.
Nothing long range will be quiet enough for backyard shooting without pissing off the whole neighborhood.
Stop falling for Hollyjew lies.
>>34522412
you are not gonna have a fun time shooting subs at hundreds of yards.
>>34522412
Use this, can even get crazy and make some baffles, but fuck subsonics and suppressors and all that.
>>34522412
>longest range
>subsonic
whatever is most efficient at 45° 1126

You mean a VSSK
