namgrunt 0 #2 April 4, 2006 usually less expensive way lower velocity so no sonic crack may not work the action of wepon used in. it is great for up close and personal action if you got a can know what a can is?? if you do not you really do not need this sub sonic ammo ..59 YEARS,OVERWEIGHT,BALDIND,X-GRUNT LAST MIL.

jeiber 0 #4 April 4, 2006 Quotei know what a can is Reminds me of a joke I heard once... Anyway, subsonic ammo, the assassin's bullet of choice! Perfect for home defense and 'throw down' guns. Easy to to explain why nobody heard the first gunshot, prior to a lethal defense! Shhh... you hear that sound? That's the sound of nobody caring!

steve1 5 #8 April 4, 2006 I can't say I know a whole lot about it, other than that ammo might work well with a silencer. I bought some 9 mm. bullets once, without jackets, (solid lead), and was told not to load them too slow because of lead fowling. I really don't know for sure if this is a factor. But, it might be wise to get jacketed bullets to go with your sub-sonic loads. I would imagine your auto might jam a lot with sub-sonic loads. My loads have to be hot enough to kick the action back, or I have all kinds of feeding problems. They'd probably shoot fine in a revolver....Steve1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
