AR in 204 ruger or 300AAC?

it's time...
i have no interest in 5.56, i have several rifles in 7.62 that can dispatch zombies/pigs/undesirables. i've got an M&P 15/22 for plinking and small game. i've got an omega in jail that i'll move from rifle to rifle
primarily i want to shoot this rifle suppressed, with subsonics, but i do quite a bit of rat hunting in the offseason and thats why the 204 ruger makes me salivate a little. otherwise, 300AAC seems like the answer, yes?
i see DPMS and olympic make/sell a dedicated AR in 204 ruger; anyone got one/shoot one? any issues with autoloading that round?

I think the obvious question is how do you hunt rats?

300aac without a doubt. I rarely shoot 5.56 anymore since I got the 300. The only bad thing about the 300 is you will want it SBR so tack on another stamp.

I'd pick the .300 aac first but I might be biased.
If you want a .204, build one. Everything with a .204 would be the same except the barrel.

Suppressed would put me into recommending 300 blk, certainly.
Ammo availability would be questionable for either, but I think the edge goes to 300 blk, as well.
.204 is a high velocity round and I think that would work against your suppression intention, quite a bit.

My vote would be 300blk

He's right, the .204 is a speedster, why go to the trouble of slowing it to subsonic?, just run subs through your 15-22.

Go with the 300.
I love mine. It's a blast to shoot, especially when you get a suppresser . The ammo has became a lot cheaper if you order bulk online.
