Thread: 7.62x39 subsonic

At those speeds it is the speed only that determines trajectory. A 22 at 1000fps and a 220gr 30 cal at 1000fps will have effectively the same trajectory as the gravity will have the same effect on both. At longer ranges, the heavier bullets retain momentum and are harder to slow but at 1000fps (or there abouts) they are not going to make it far enough for that to make a difference.

Where these types of loads really work is tight bush and close up personal stuff or where ears are important. And its your ears, your dogs ears and potentially the ears of the animal that is next to the one you just shot......just like rabbits but bigger.....Bail guns running subs on bailed pigs or dispatching a farm animal with out disturbing the whole herd....

And for those that like to get close, it is as challenging as archery...
