I will stick to energy…mass & velocity.
for msot situations yes, however 300 AAC suppressed is actually pretty awesome, subsonic rounds are super quiet and even standard velocity with a suppressor is a whole loto harder to zero in on location.
Pretty accurate too
Know a lot former military and contractors and nearly all of them say the people with the best chances when/if things totally go to shit will be running suppressed weapons, NODS, and doing their business in the dark-—can’t disagree with them.
