So I'm looking into building a dedicated suppressed upper in 300 blackout. Pistol length. I've narrowed down the world of suppressors to just a few that I'm looking at. Is there a "cheapish" 300 blackout plinker load that works with suppresors? I know heavier bullets but can I use a 150gr fmj in 308?
Too lite. They won’t stabilize. You will might destroy your suppressor.
What's the lightest bullet on average that will stabilize?
I have 125 gr loaded for hog hunting. 10.5" SBR suppressed. They shoot as well as the 150's once you find the right load.

No! Only 200+ gr with 1680 for subs. These are super sonic.
Huh?
I have heard people going down to 180, but I wouldn’t try that with a barrel over 1/7 twist. I prefer 208 or higher. The best I have used is 220 boat tailed Sierra’s
I have a 10.5" SBR in 300blk suppressed. I load and shoot the 150 gr fmjbt primarily. They shoot very well.
Are you wanting sub sonic 150s or super?
