I’m wondering if anyone has had much experience shooting subsonic blackout rounds on fur. If so I’m hoping for some suggestions on both factory loads and bullets for hand loads. I realize that subsonic is difficult to provide optimal bullet performance, but I’m hoping someone might have some insight as to a round that proves capable of harvesting the occasional coyote!
 
I have used the Hornady 190subx, suprisingly accurate out of my 700sps. It expands well and thumps coyotes pretty hard. The main issue with the 300bo is the ballistics, for a hunting round it is tricky and you have to be on your game with yardage and holdover. I have a specific purpose as I occasionally get critters out at the back edge of my field, known distance of 90-110 yrds, I shoot suppressed and the critters drop on the spot.
I have tried loading some 200-210gr bullets, but the Subx works pretty [beeep] good and I don't shoot a ton of them.
