Due to the aimpoint, the round must rapidly expand creating a large wound channel with as many ft/#'s as can be generated. I use the round to deer hunt at a relatively close range in a heavily forested area through a suppressed rifle to shoot deer. The Defiant subsonic 308 TCX-S is the gold standard in repeatability creating my confidence in the round. It may be necessary to single feed each round in semi-automatic and automatic firearms. **Notice to customers: Due to the subsonic nature of this load, it is NOT designed to properly cycle a semi-automatic or automatic firearm.

Additionally, every round is inspected and chamber checked by hand before packaging. We go the extra mile to ensure maximum performance and consistency. We test every lot of ammunition for pressure, muzzle velocity, muzzle energy, penetration depth, expansion rate and weight retention to the highest standards. The result is consistent penetration that meets or exceeds FBI standards, and expansion that reliably outperforms typical JHP (Jacketed HollowPoint) projectiles.Īt DEFIANT MUNITIONS, we don’t simply test each new product upon release. There is no bi-metallic bonding to separate or otherwise fail, as can occur with JHP (Jacketed HollowPoint) projectiles. TCX (Total Copper X-panding) ammunition incorporates a 100% solid copper projectile, with both interior and exterior serrations to ensure maximum expansion. Packaged 20 rounds per box, we build these to our exacting standards to ensure you have only the most consistent and reliable defensive ammo available.ĭEFIANT MUNITIONS uses only the highest quality primers, powder, brass casings and projectiles in all of our Premium Defensive ammunition. 308 Winchester caliber Total Copper X-panding round, with a muzzle velocity of 1,000 feet per second and 400 ft/lbs of muzzle energy, as tested in a 16 inch,1 in 10 twist barrel.

Unique powders optimized for subsonic use result in a low flash signature, ideal for either suppressed or unsuppressed performance. SILENT AND STEALTHY Hornady® Subsonic Ammunition doesn’t have the loud report of a supersonic round, and paired with a suppressor, it’s even quieter. The XTP® bullet in Subsonic Handgun has built a world-class reputation for accuracy and stopping power. Product Features PROVEN PERFORMANCE Performance of 300 Blackout Subsonic meets or exceeds FBI Protocol terminal ballistic test requirements. Powders are selected for optimal performance and consistency from lot to lot. Long grooves in its gilding metal jacket combine with the bullet’s flat profile and the patented Flex Tip® insert within its hollowpoint cavity to help it expand reliably at low velocities. The Sub-X bullet used in Subsonic Rifle features a lead core.

Subsonic Handgun utilizes tried-and-true XTP® bullets that expand reliably at subsonic velocities. Hornady Subsonic Ammunition - designed for accuracy and performance below the speed of sound - now comes in both rifle and handgun loads.
