    WTB subsonic 223

    These are available factory overseas but not sure about here -- anyone know where to get factory or handloads from?
    Thanks to the Playstation we have the outdoors to ourselves!

    Never seen them as factory loads in nz.

    Depending on where you are in NZ you should be able to get someone to load some up for you.
    If your in Wellington sweet talk phil at mainly hunting.

    Or just buy a chamber adaptor and run aguilia 60gn subsonic .22 ammo.
    Would work a lot better on game

    Wow, that's sad.

    Evolve or die has long been the story of retail and I guess gun city taking over from Hamills was more than they could take.
