I have an idea and have done very little research into it yet, but thought I would run it by you guys.
With a subsonic round, you are limited in the velocity of the round. If that is true, what is the difference between a 68gr subsonic 22lr and a subsonic .223 of the 100 gr flavor?
Now I relieze the .223 will probably have a bit more energy, but when price is thrown into the mix, the 22lr really starts to shine.
Top of the head figures
.223
AR $900
Suppressor $600
Tax stamp $200
Ammo $37/20 rds
Total of $1737
.22lr
10/22 $300
Suppressor $250
Tax stamp $200
Ammo $ 6/50
Total $756
I know the numbers probably aren't the best, just top of my head and a really really quick check for some prices.
Not to mention, the .22lr will be shot a LOT more, and a rugger mark III would be a nice partner.
