Subsonic or Supersonic?

[davy]

Which type of ammo is more suitable for within 200 yards shooting (anything)?

For subsonic, I'm thinking heavy ammo like 60gr Aguilas.
For supersonic, probably CCI Stinger.

Which one hits harder? The bigger one or the faster one?

The latest development in Long Rifle hunting ammunition is the hyper-velocity load. Typical of these are the CCI Stinger and Remington Yellow Jacket. Hyper-velocity .22's achieve higher speeds than previous high velocity ammunition at permissible pressure by using light, copper plated, hollow point bullets of about 30-33 grains in front of an increased charge of slightly slower burning powder. This allows a muzzle velocity of about 1,500 fps and a muzzle energy of about 165 ft. lbs. The light bullet sheds velocity and energy quickly, however. At 100 yards the energy has fallen to 85 ft. lbs., about the same as a high velocity HP bullet.

Subsonic ammo tend to perform a bit better. I have no experience with the 60 gr ammo..... but remember that each rifle will prefer a certain brand of ammo, so try out a few different kinds and see what your rifle likes.

Try both and let us know. I'm curious too.
I'm going to guess the 60gr might be more suitable if the bullet drop isn't too bad. I've always thought the .22LR bullets were too light for distance.
