My thoughts would to be to try a good 150 grain bullet and then mess around with heavier stuff and see if I could get a decent 1000ish speed. Like super 300 blackout. I imagine you could get the heavier stuff to go subsonic in it like 300 blackout, but with maybe a bit more speed…After burning up some old factory ammo I had on hand, I've tried a few loads so far. Some 165 grain coated lead plinkers with Unique for knocking down steel, and some old 150 grain PSP bullets I have over a couple rifle powders. Seemed to do decent with both.
After trying a lower-end load of IMR 4895 and IMR 4227 with the coated bullets, I think a gas check would be helpful, as I got a little leading in the last 1/3 of the bore.
Would like to see what I can do with the 150 grain PSP bullets with rifle powder as I have a decent supply of these thanks to another member here.
