Lurker, I was thinking you meant to tell me there’s no *quality* 7.62x51 subsonic out there that you’ve found satisfactory so far...

I’ve got a National Match M1-A that I’d like to use as a test platform for ss ammunition. I’ve been hand-rolling my own for quite a while but I generally stay withing the recommended velocities and pressures for obvious reasons.

M1-A’s don’t like velocities much above 2600 fps or so. I’ve never tried sub-1100 fps before. Does that stuff have enough impulse to cycle the action reliably?

Thanks.
