I have used the LPP in 30-30 cast loads too and they worked fine. When I did load developed the groups varied but none were larger than 2.5" which is plenty good enough for a 8" target. As long as the ammo can shoot accurately enough to stay on the steel that's fine. Our match target is a 8" round steel swinger. They worked just fine and at 50 yards I never noticed a difference in accuracy.
338 SPECTRE SUBSONIC FULL
Naturally it does not work the action but that's good because we don't want to be chasing brass anyway.īack when primers were scarce I needed to conserve my LRP for full power loads so I tried LPP in my 54R sub-sonic cast loads. 50 yards is the range of our sub-sonic cast competition shoots so this is most important. So far I've only shot groups at 50 yards. I haven't loaded any small primer rifle except for 300 BO and I'm using standard SRP in them. if they dont work will i thought about trying to anneal the bullets to see if the soften up at all. these seemed like the best candidates and ill test them soon. i found that the Hornady 55 grain soft point has the thinnest jacket of all the bullets i tested (0.010" thick) meaning it might expand better at lower speeds, and the Speer 52 grain hollow point had the second thinnest jacket (0.015" thick) along with a wide hollow point and a very large hollow cavity. i also took a file to a few bullets to see which ones i think would expand well. but i have found one thanks to "Buffman_LT1" by "Maker bullets" i think it was just called "expanding subsonic" on their website ( looks like a Leigh Defense "maximum expansion" bullet). I have done a fare amount of research on different 223 bullets and its hard to find any that will expand at subsonic speeds. So basically it would have to be a "special purpose" bullet and there is no market for it.Ĭast powder coated bullets is probably your best option. 223 simply because heavy needs a fast twist rate and fast twist rate and soft bullet is a bad combination at high velocity. IdeaIdeally you would want a heavy soft bullet for sub-sonic use but you are not going to be able to find any in. Most of them list a description for each bullet detailing it's intended use and it's intended velocity range. 223 I suggest you go to the various bullet manufacturer web sites and do some research. They are accurate and expand well.įor you. if they made a v-max 22lr i would be contempt. but i think a 223 subsonic with a good bullet will be much more devastating.
