Hornady Sub-X .3115 255gr Subsonic Bullets - 100 Count$46.65
Availability: In Stock
Hornady Subsonic 7.62x39mm ammunition delivers effective performance below the speed of sound, making it an excellent choice for suppressed shooting or situations where noise signature matters. The SUB-X polymer tip design uses long grooves in the gilding metal jacket combined with a patented Flex Tip insert to achieve reliable expansion even at subsonic velocities. Each round carries a 255-grain bullet and ships in convenient 20-round boxes, ideal for testing loads or stocking subsonic-specific practice and hunting ammunition.
The subsonic platform is engineered around controlled velocity and consistency. Hornady selects powders specifically for optimal subsonic performance and lot-to-lot uniformity, which translates to more predictable ballistics and tighter shot grouping at the distances where you'll typically shoot subsonic loads. Whether you're running a suppressor or shooting unsuppressed, the low flash signature and controlled report make this round suitable for both tactical applications and hunting scenarios where stealth is a priority.
Built on quality components—durable cartridge cases and reliable primers—this ammunition maintains the accuracy standards Hornady shooters depend on. The 7.62x39mm cartridge itself is well-suited to suppressed platforms and modern plinkers, and subsonic loads eliminate the supersonic crack, leaving only the mechanical sound of the action and suppressor. If you're running a can on a 7.62x39mm rifle and want ammunition engineered specifically for that setup, Hornady Subsonic delivers the ballistic performance and consistency to make it worth your investment.
| Cartridge | 7.62x39mm |
| Bullet Type | SUB-X Polymer Tip |
| Bullet Weight | 255 grains |
| Jacket Material | Gilding metal |
| Core | Lead |
| Rounds Per Box | 20 |
| Product Line | Subsonic |
| Suggested Applications | Varmint (under 50 lbs), Coyote, Medium Game (50–300 lbs) |
Yes. Hornady Subsonic ammunition is engineered specifically for subsonic performance—velocities below the sound barrier. Paired with a suppressor, it produces minimal noise. The low flash signature also makes it effective unsuppressed if you prefer to minimize muzzle flash and report.
The SUB-X design combines long grooves in the gilding metal jacket with a patented Flex Tip polymer insert in the hollowpoint cavity. This combination promotes reliable expansion even at the lower velocities characteristic of subsonic loads, where traditional hollow-points may not open consistently.
The SUB-X bullet is 255 grains, which provides the mass and sectional density needed for effective performance on medium game and varmint-sized targets at subsonic velocities.
Each box contains 20 rounds of 7.62x39mm Subsonic ammunition.
