I have a 8.5" 300 blk I run supersonic ammo through. No problem without hearing pro with a suppressor. Same barrel and ammo without a suppressor and it will ring your ears.
I have (2) 10.5" 5.56 barrels both hearing safe shooting supersonic ammo with a suppressor.
I also have a 16.5" 300 blk and a 16.5" 5.56. Running supersonic ammo through a suppressor with those is WAY quiet.
The shorter the barrel the louder the boom. But the suppressor... suppresses the noise very well regardless of length.

I just got geared for for the 300BLK. Black Forge Upper.
Found lots of 300AAC ammo at Academy all over I-10 from Kerrville to Baytown. They have the Cheap Remington 120gr OTFB 14.99/bx and the DRT's 27.99/bx.
I bought a few hundred rounds of the 110gr Varmedgeddons from KNS Precision in Fredricksburg last week $21/bx. They have a good supply of 300blk in super and sub sonic weights. Pallets full of subsonic 22lr also.
Look here also for ammo.

Are they shooting subs? Subs suck for hunting period unless you are taking head shots.
Every animal I've shot with mine has been DRT.

As Mike mentioned I've been running the cheap umc green box and doing pretty well. On lighter game they don't devistate like a Varmit bullet would.. they tend to zip right through. On pigs they do more damage.. as pigs are more dense to allow the bullet to work. But they are half the price of Barnes 110... so I'm willing to compromise a bit because of my intended target and not wanting to spend a ton to kill em.
All that said I've yet to lose an animal. All the pigs have been DRT including this lil guy.
If i was only going out to shoot lighter game I'd choose a balistic tip like the varmageddon or the barnes.
This coyote made it 30 yards.. that's the furthest anything has made it on me at this point.
For an all around spring/summer gun that's a blast to carry and suppress.. which make it ideal for hunting with the Lil guy... I don't think it can be beat.
To be fair I don't own a 6.8spc or a 6.5 grendel.. at this point I don't think I will ever need to. Lol. I do own a few 5.56's and I wouldn't purposely go pig hunting with one considering I have better options.. will it get the job done? Definitely. Are there better options out there for pigs? Most certainly.
If i was only Varmit hunting I'm taking the 5.56.
But for your intended targets the 300 blk will suit you well.

The last lower is the Seekins SP223.
Both are about priced the same, the Seekins has cooler features but the Hellbreaker has the lil ****** off guy lol so either way. Look to spend 300 bones for the lower alone..
