SUBSONIC .308 WIN reload data

Gold $$ Contributor
I am looking at reloading some .308 WIN subsonic ammo, but I feel like it's kinda hard to find the data. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am looking at the Hornady 190gr .30 cal SUB-X bullets, Trail Boss powder. normal brass and normal large rifle primer. Can anybody chime in? I'd love to learn something new today, lol.Horn30_190SubXbox__23552.webp

Depending on your twist rate, those might not work. My Tikka CTR is a 11 twist and the 190 sub x were key holing. I had to go to a Hornady 170 flat points. These are shorter that the 190's but still 170g. They shoot very well 10g of Trailboss.

This was why I offered the. option of the Hornady 175 SubX and data.
 
I loaded some those 190s in a 10 twist Ruger American with Titegroup powder and shot less than 1” groups at 100 yards at like 1040 fps.
I could not find any TB
 
Just like Eric same gun but I used h322 powder. Right at 1050 and about a inch at 100. Killed a tom and the 1s with him didnt do nothing but walk around. Worked good...and we can hunt turkeys in Va with a rifle...it was with the 190s sub-x
