Hi again, got another question for the community. I've got some 150gr soft point that I got from hornady for buying their stuff, rebate program or what ever. I was doing some reading and found 2 subsonic loads for the 150gr bullet. One uses trail boss and another uses tight group. I would assume the TB to be the better powder for this application? Besides the lack of volume that the TG would have what would be the issue with using TG. Not sure why I want to try this little experiment, haven't bought a suppressor yet (YET!). Any one loading subsonic for varmint control?
