If you are loading for a specific speed, like you do for subsonics, loading the lighter bullet will require a lighter powder charge. For example, I use 8.5 grains of 2400 for a 240 SMK but use 8.0 grains of 2400 for a 208 A-Max to accomplish the same velocity, 1050 fps. This is in a 10.5" Noveske barrel.
