Thanks, I'll check it out when I get the chance.

Completely overlooked this but yeah, 220/230 grains going about 1000-1100 fps, only 1 is a 45 cal pistol bullet and 1 is a 30 cal rifle bullet... not sure how much of a difference there is/would be between the different projectiles in terms of effects on target. but i can't imagine rounds that were designed for supersonic performance being great at subsonic vs a round that was designed for subsonic from the get-go. I hate saying this, but after realizing this, that takes a lot of the thrill out of the round for me... maybe I should just get a suppressed 45acp when I can. Or build a pistol/rifle that can handle supersonic loads suppressed... not as quiet, but maybe it won't be as bad as an unsuppressed rifle. Guess this will be for me to decide by experiencing in person (say 223 suppressed vs 300 BLK supersonic loads suppressed vs maybe an AK suppressed).

All the other feedback here keeps me enthusiastic though.
