I got roped into helping a friend try and develop a heavy subsonic .308 load...wanted my help cos i had a 26 inch barrelled L42A1 at the time and he wanted to try the longer barrel to see if it could get the bullet spinning adequately to stop it tumbling , never managed subsonic but got it stable at about 1300fps with a 180 grain bullet ... just over half the normal velocity of 147grn radway.
Nothing is fool proof for a sufficiently talented fool!!!!
