Suppressed Carbine - Leonidas (Liberty)
8.2", 1:7
GI mags
220 gr Sierra MK
H110 - 9.5,9.75,9.95,10.2
LC 5.56, reformed to 300BLK
Wolf small rifle
COAL - 2.26"
Velocities 985,1038,1056,1104
Zero Issues so far. All feed, fire, and eject fine (to include bolt staying open after last round).
SD - 6.4, 11.3, 11, 24.5
velocity spread (fps) 14, 38,34,52

9.5 and 10.2 loads shot at 75F & 30.11; 9.75 and 9.95 77 F & 30.06

All loads were done on my Lee Loadmaster; I had to use the .61 cavity and some sand paper to get to 9.95 and 9.75 (I shot the 9.5 and 10.2 and then determined 9.7 would be right were I wanted it; first .61 cavity I took to much out of, so decided to try it; then did another). For weights I am doing two powder drops and dividing (hence the .05 measurements). The are pretty consistent, but still a progressive; and a Lee. I am going to go with the 9.75 @ 1038 fps load, hopefully keep me subsonic year round.
