Hornady Subsonic Rifle ammunition in .350 Legend (brand part no. 81198-HRN) loads a 250-grain Sub-X bullet built for reduced noise and lighter recoil, whether the shooter is a new hunter or running a suppressed rifle. The Sub-X bullet’s Flex Tip, combined with long grooves cut into its gilding metal jacket and a flat nose profile, is engineered to expand at the low velocities a subsonic load produces without sacrificing accuracy. Hornady loads unique powders specifically for subsonic use, keeping muzzle flash low with or without a suppressor and making this load noticeably quieter than a standard supersonic round. For .350 Legend shooters who want a subsonic load that still performs on impact, this rifle ammunition is built for exactly that.
