Hi All,
I have a couple of KAC SBRs (15/30) and associated QDC suppressors (one in 556 / the other in 762 - 300 BLK) that should be getting out of jail in the next couple of months (I'm counting the days). Anyway, in anticipation, I would like to start stocking up on ammo - high quality ammo for HD, SHTF etc. Something that will really work well with the configuration of the rifles / suppressors.
So, a couple of ammo specific questions:
1) For the 556, from what I have gathered from my search, it looks like the 62 gr Gold Dot might be the way to go. My search seemed to indicate that these would be better than 75 gr due to higher muzzle velocity from a short barreled rifle. Question: Is there anything better for an 11.5" / suppressed rifle from a defense standpoint? By better I mean effect on target, not necessarily sub-MOA accuracy.
2) As for 300, I am at a total loss on what to do. I have never shot 300 but know there are two classes: lighter (super) rounds and heavier (sub-sonic) rounds. I think I am interested in the sub-sonic rounds for CQB / lower decibel reasons. I had looked at 190 Grain Sub-X Hornady but they seemed to get mixed reviews in terms of performance. Anyway, if there is a "go-to" sub-sonic round for 300 BLK CQB / HD I would love to hear your recommendations.
Thanks for reading, thanks for your time, and thanks for your input.
