Reloading/Recycling Lake City M855 to Subsonic ss109 Q
I would like to reload some subsonic ss109 (some of the squirrels here in metro Detroit have upgraded to fussion-powered battle 'mechs; on loan from the possums no doubt!) and I have a bunch of Lake City m855 purchased from Cheaper than Dirt. I plan on pulling the bullets and would like sage advice on how to procede from there.
From the information I've gathered M855 is loaded with 26 grns. (or as much as 27.5 grns.) of Winchester 844 powder.
Not knowing much about reloading I have some questions:
can I pull a bullet and put a lesser amount of the WC844 back in the case and reload it for 1k fps? Should I use a different powder (if so please advise for 62 grn.)
Should I get new materials even if the cases are in good condition?
Has anyone else ever loaded subsonic ss109 (search turned up almost no mention)?
Thanks
