Best Subsonic 300 BO deer loads?

Post by 300black »

Looking to shoot a deer close distance with a subsonic 300 BO load. Wondering which are some of the best and where to get them?

I highly recommend perpose built hunting projectiles like Lehigh Defence 194gr ME and 168gr CF ammo. I’m sure there are other great bullets but we are limited here in New Zealand on 300 BLK ammo.

Do you reload or stick with factory rounds?

We're coming out with a really excellent option for expanding 300BLK. You can check out the thread here: viewtopic.php?f=151&t=101259

Thanks, but I need this ammo this week.


Lehigh Defence 194gr ME seems to be out of stock. Any other options?

200 and 220 grain ammo in stock. These work very well and I shot 3-3.5" groups consistently at 200 yards with bullets as a handload. I would trust the loaded ammo to 75-100.

300 Blackout, not just for sub-sonics.

Thanks!


I was able to order the 194gr Leheigh. For some reason their webpage loaded slow for me and I couldn't checkout right away. Got it fixed and was able to make my order.
