New Hornday Subsonic 300BLK Expanding Bullet

[35remington]

Looks pretty cool. Still need to know exact distance to target since subs drop so much, but for hog hunting at a 50-yard feeder this would be a quiet way to dispatch.

Cool thanks for the info

I'd really like to try it out in my 300 Blackout. Wonder when it will hit the shelves?

Probably vapor ware for 6-months like everything else these days.

I’m curious as to how this would perform as a CQB round. . .

Hornady seems to think it'll do just fine:

"Hornady® 300 Blackout features a 190 gr. SUB-X™ (Subsonic eXpanding) bullet with patented Flex Tip® technology, specifically designed to expand at subsonic velocities yet meet FBI protocol. This cartridge is loaded with a powder that is optimized to provide flash suppression, clean burning, yet function in short barrel to carbine length rifles."

Yeah I watched the video and heard what they “claim” [emoji16] but was referring to actual use and performance.
