Can't find any local. Where is the best place to purchase online?

Sorry if this has been asked before

Any reason to use subsonic 223? Most ARs can't cycle it anyway. Might as well just shoot a 22

I was wanting to run it through my suppressor.

Didn't know about cycle issues

Yeah it will struggle to cycle them. Although if you are just looking for the neatnes of it I'm sure somebody makes some subsonics for it it's just not common. Im guessing you are aware you can run supersonics through your suppressor granted it's rated for it. Although it's most likely not rated for rimfires so although you could technically shoot 22s through it but there's no good way to clean it.

Subsonic 223 is pointless. Very low energy. If you want to shoot subsonics through an AR, get a 300 blackout. Then you can shoot 220 gr at 1000 fps instead of 55 gr.

Not to mention that it would never cycle an AR, unless for some strange reason it had pistol gas.
