Does anyone have load data for .308 subsonic rounds. A friend has a Rem. 700 equipped with an AWC Thundertrap suppressor that is just wicked with SS ammo.

I am sure you will not find any SS rounds. Your slowest velocity rounds would be of the cast lead variety. I have gone back to 1953 reloading books and the slowest bullet loads i found were 1355 fps. Sorry. vangunsmith

IMR 4759 and the bullets you want to use, should be among the most accurate and quiet.

1725fps is the slowest I got with a 150rn out of my CZ550. Used 12gr Somchem MP200 with a cotton wad. Accurate as hell too!!! I think Lapua loads an SS round......
