So Hornady have a new product. I’m interested in loading it up, however Hornady hasn’t got any info out in their latest manual as these have been released post book release.

I’ve emailed Hornady and am awaiting a reply from them.

Having said that has anyone got some load data they are happy to share for subsonics in 30-06?

Could you use Trailboss to develop a low velocity load for your 30/06?

What twist is your 30-06? I’m thinking the sub x more focused on 300 Blackout. Probably want at least 1:10 twist? 1:12 might not be enough. Just a thought. Particularly if you want to run them at subsonic velocities

Yes ideal for the blackout but heard of people supposedly getting good results still out of the .308’s.

My rifle has a 11 twist
