Re: Light Subs--Powder Recommendations

I've had good luck with imr4198 for subs. Its actually my go-to instead of the "usual" powders. Ive found it quieter and cleaner through my gun than 1680 and DEFINITELY CFE BLK. More accurate for me too.

Re: Red dot w/magnifier or 1-4x scope

If you aren't willing/able to fork over the cash for an Eotech magnifier or something in that price range, go 1-4x scope. I've had a PA magnifier before and it was.....lacking in optical clarity.

Re: Subsonic 300 Blackout Suppressors

are you shooting uncoated lead projectiles? if you aren't, I wouldn't have too many concerns. just load up some supers now and then (or put it on a 5.56 or .308 or something else with more power). I have had a YHM Phantom 7.62 for about 5 years now, and it's never needed cleaned. *IF* you're shootin...
