Please please please….do not use subsonic ammo to hunt with. You will be fine with a 7” barrel and super sonic ammo. 300 blk does extremely well in short barrels.
I’ve read that subsonic ammo is not enough for pigs. So I guess I worded that wrong. While I will use a suppressor, I’m not worried about using subsonic ammo. Maybe my delve into velocities wasnt good. Maybe I was way too conservative with that initial 1150 estimate.
I should have just asked, “can I still ethically hunt pigs and deer within 100 yards with a 7” 300 blackout upper?”
