Lapua do a bullet for subsonic ammunition that is 200 grains, I think the weight is to try and maintain the speed and energy as long as possible. The heaviest I have in .308 are 190SMk's now I just need to find some suitable powder.

The .300 whisper uses bullets to 250 gr I believe.
At that velocity I would have thought cast boolits would be just as good and a damn sight cheaper.

Purveyor of fine cast boolits.
All round good guy and VERY grumpy old man.
