Here's subsonic! 800 grain cast lead bullets fired from 1000 yards using 116 grains KIK 2F powder in a Sharps 50/90 rifle! Bullet was SUBSONIC before 250 yards but maintained accuracy to 1000 yards! Had I taken one MOA left windage all would have been inside the 20" ten ring plate! I was just testing for vertical dispersion....which was an average of 8"!
