This was the heaviest factory load I could round up, and accuracy was a bit better than the average for all the subsonic loads tested. Terminal performance mirrored that of the other subsonic non-expanding bullets, with deep, straight-line penetration. Reliability was dismal. The load would not cycle the AAC carbine at all, and in the JP rifle, it fully cycled the action only 30 percent of the time.

New Pistol Suppressors for 2025

We hear you (pun intended)! This year, we are reporting manufacturer’s sound-reduction rating where available. Now, not every manufacturer makes that information publicly available, so you’ll see a fair number of “N/As” where no decibel-reduction numbers were provided, but rest assured that, despite what you might think, the noise-reduction rating is one of the least important factors when choosing a new suppressor (more on that in a future article).
