I have a few thousand 208 Amax's so I would like to use those in my 300bo. Anyone have a load for these that keeps them sub sonic?

AA 1680, worked up to 1040fps (is subsonic in my conditions). Shoots 1" at 100 in a home assembled savage 10 with custom barrel. I think it's 10.3 gr but I would have to check my books.

Lil gun and reloader 7 have given me very accurate results.

When they are loaded subsonic would they function with an AR action??

8.3gr of lil gun in an 8" AR. Cycles perfectly and is subsonic. Accuracy is about 1.5-2" at 100 yards.

Seems like an awful waste of a good bullet.

Seems like an awful waste of a good bullet. Well I have 2k of them sitting here so I might as well shoot them in something.

Fair enough. You don't have a 308, 30-06, 300wsm, win mag or anything that could take advantage of such a fine bullet at a decent range?
If not, sounds like a rifle project waiting to happen.
