Hornady® Subsonic Ammunition is designed for accuracy and performance below the speed of sound. The Sub-X® (Subsonic - eXpanding) bullet features a lead core. Long grooves in its gilding metal jacket combine with the bullet’s flat profile and the patented Flex Tip® insert within its hollowpoint cavity to help it expand reliably at low velocities. Performance of the Hornady® Subsonic load meets or exceeds FBI Protocol terminal ballistic test requirements.
SUB-X® BULLET TECHNOLOGY In addition to its patented Flex Tip®, long grooves in the gilding metal jacket of the Sub-X® combine with the bullet’s flat profile to ensure expansion. The Sub-X® features a lead core and a cannelure for a positive case crimp for use in semi-automatics. PROVEN PERFORMANCE Performance of the Subsonic meets or exceeds FBI Protocol terminal ballistic test requirements. SILENT AND STEALTHY Hornady® Subsonic Ammunition doesn’t have the loud report of a supersonic round, and paired with a suppressor, it’s even quieter. Unique powders optimized for subsonic use result in a low flash signature, ideal for either suppressed or unsuppressed performance.
