Subsonic 223 recipes7/14/2023 ![]() I'll hazard the guess that the OP and his buddy may not be aware of all this. 444 and RanB's comments there are enlightening and pretty comprehensive, as well as concise. 223, hopefully it will help you understand: Starts at about comment 14 and continues, there are some very good points and facts to consider for all you guys who are baffled by anyone who wants a suppressed. Between him and a couple others they pretty much sum it up. I read an almost identical post with a couple of individuals who make the point better than I do, read the remarks left by "444" on following page. The people asking the question aren't asking for anyones random opinion on what the best or cheapest subsonic platform is, if they wanted the opinions they would have posted a topic titled "What's the best subsonic rifle". I could go on writing these for a full page, but I am only trying to make a point. Is it a challenge to get an AR to perform great subsonic? Yes.ĭoes it cost more than other subsonic platforms to shoot? Yes.ĭo the people posting the topic know all this already? Most likely. 223 round? No.Īre there better subsonic platforms available? Of course. Is it as effective as a normal supersonic. The vast majority of the time the people posting have no experience whatsoever using these rounds and a large percentage don't even own a suppressor for any caliber. 223's there is ALWAYS one or two people that feel the need to post their opinions on the effectiveness of the round even though it's not the topic. I don't quite understand why on every post concerning subsonic. Remington Subsonics definitely sound the best but they are so unreliable that I don't even bother with them anymore. I was using Federal Target which is standard velocity but when the snow started to fly these rounds started going supersonic. Where I am at this ammo stays subsonic even in the colder temps. Out of my CZ rifle (16" barrel) I use CCI standard velocity. Out of my Buckmark pistol I shoot Federal bulk high velocity.

Subsonics are going to be more quiet but standard ammo is not going to sound the same suppressed vs not suppressed. Its got a shorter barrel then your CZ rifle. I shoot standard ammo out of my Walter P22 with suppressor and its still pretty quiet. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'd like to know why I'm wrong. I just fugured it would be the same type of deal with the. But use subsonic and it's as quiet as a mouse. 22 rifle it is just as loud as without the suppressor. Well, I know that when I shoot high velocity ammo in my suppressed CZ. So, yes, obviously subsonic ammo is quieter than supersonic, but how this relates to your 223 cannot be directly compared to your 22LR. In a small little CQB pit shooting at targets 10yds away the sonic crack can still ring your ears a little bit just because it's reflecting off the target so close to you. If you are using it on a 50yd+ range then you'll be just fine without earpro. Your suppressor will knock that down to hearing safe levels even if you do still hear the sonic crack. However with a 223 (particularly in shorter barreled AR's) there is a LOT of muzzle blast and that is what deafens you. Try subsonic 22LR in an unsuppressed 22LR and it's fairly quiet. Even with a suppressor most of what you hear is the sonic crack. With a 22LR in a rifle length barrel there is very little heard muzzle blast in the first place. Just shoot the damn thing and you will be fine. Why is it that when people get cans they immediately think that they need subsonic ammo? You wont find a subsonic round that is going to cycle the action of an AR unless you go to a 300 whisper or something of that nature.

The 223 is designed to travel 3000 fps and works great with a can, but if you want quiet either go with a 22 LR or build a whisper. I hear you on the full power ammo with a can.
