If that existed, 300blk wouldn't exist. But it doesn't, so it does.

That's what I was afraid of just thought I'd check. Thanks for the replays!

Using a Specwar 5.56 on a 10.5", mine is hearing safe. If that is your concern. Edit: I am not a scientist, so i will rephrase. The sound doesn't bother me. It is a light crack from my set up.

IMO you'd be much better off just going with 300BLK or a pistol caliber like 9MM or 45ACP.
Ammo is widely available, reliable, and with better terminal performance. My 2¢ |

There are two subsonic loads that I've found that will semi-reliably cycle my .223/5.56 carbines. Thing is, they can only do it with the ciener kit in the gun, because the loads are .22LR rather than a .223 centerfire. Launching them from a centerfire case wouldn't mean the bullets would necessarily be any better-performing. Terminal performance is a function of bullet design, bullet mass, and bullet velocity; and a .22-caliber subsonic is inherently gimped in two of those three categories from the get-go. If you just want to enjoy shooting very-quiet shooting from your existing gun, maybe look into a conversion kit and just use .22LR's. I do that a lot and enjoy it, frankly. |

It doesn't matter if it bothers you. You are destroying your hearing shooting without ear pro, can or not. |

Even if there were, why? Think about the ballistics, it would be like REALLY expensive .22lr

That said there are HUGE expanding subsonic .300 blackout rounds so .223 is a joke subsonic. |
