CorBon Subsonics?

It could be me...
I ordered what I thought was CorBon's subsonic ammo, then waited over a month for delivery. When it arrived, it was the 150-grain supersonic load.
Included with the boxes of ammo was several sheets of CorBon's product list. Checking all around the products, the only load I could find listed was that 150-grain fast load.
Could they have dropped their subsonic line? Anybody get subsonic ammo from them in the last month?

No...I'd say they screwed up your order. I've seen them do it before. It takes them awhile to run up batches of both supersonic and subsonic. Sometimes when there in a hurry they get them switched. You probably got the 150 supersonic. Look at the bullet. If it's got a lead tip it's probably 150gr supersonic. If it's got a hollow point it could be a 220gr subsonic. Call them and ask them.

bullet mix up

Corbon lists 300 whisper ammo under two different product lines. The 150 grain load is under the Hunting Ammo line, and the 125 supersonic and 220 subsonics are under what I believe they call their defense or tactical line.

This is probably why you didn't see the other loads on your product list.

CorBon

You're right. I was able to find it on their website by doing a search on ".300 Whisper", and three loadings came up.

Strange that they don't list the subsonic in their printed literature, though. Guess it's not a really big seller.

Thanks for the ideas.
