hi all i have been in this whisper game for over 17 years i tested it for the army and took it to war. i love the shit out of it and would not be here if not for a well placed whisper round from my ranger buddy. i made up a rem 700 in 7.62x39 with a can for a buddy who was deploying a few years back ( 15 ) with 180 g fmj pulled from 7.62x54r ammo loaded with 7.9 g of 2400 sound like a whisper load to you , that rifle got left on a lz the 7.62x39 is a great round and im working on a gas system for the akm that will work with both a sub sonic and super sonic round what do you all think good idea or bad :confused: :confused:

Is "extremely good idea" one of the choces?:grin:
I had been emailing to a guy in New Zeland, (police officer) who used the little commie round ,subsonic, to shoot goats. He gave me the impression that Lapua loaded a subsonic round at the factory. I think at the top end it may have a little more juice (to hanloaders) than the whisper . The Lapua 7.62 X 39 brass that I've messed with was very heavy and I wouldnt get near as tense "undercharging" it as I do the Rem stuff I've been using to make whisper cases.
