A subsonic 223 is useless.
It will literally have the energy of a subsonic 22Lr with a 55gr projo.
If In a AR platform you will have to manually cycle the action.
If you could have a tube the length of travel of the projectile in theory you could silence a super sonic round.
Unfortunately that isn't practical. Thus once the tube runs out and physic's takes over the projectile running 2900fps-3200fps is flying faster than the speed of sound from the get go.
Thus you have what happens when a jet breaking the sound barrier flies by a sonic crack.
Interestingly enough if you are not expecting the round or if you close your eyes and stand down range but to the side you will be hard pressed to express where the suppressed shot originated from!
Pretty neat experiment!
Yup, he's crazy...
like a fox. The dude may be coming in a little too hard and crazy but 90% of everything he says is correct.
Sort of like Toof. But way smarter.
