The Discreet Ballistics 300 AAC Blackout 188gr Selous Subsonic Hunting/Self Defense load is designed to be the most effective expanding subsonic 300BLK cartridge available. Before initiating the development process for the Selous Machined Expander™ three areas were identified as crucial factors for a successful subsonic expanding projectile: weight retention, accuracy, and expansion. There is currently no other expanding subsonic projectile option with proficiency in all three of these categories. The Selous Machined Expander™ projectile was designed using state-of-the-art ballistics modeling software to maximize stability at subsonic velocities. As part of the development cycle extensive gel testing was performed and the appropriate design modifications were made to maximize terminal performance.

The Discreet Ballistics Selous Machined Expander™ is loaded with new Lapua® 300BLK brass and the finest commercially available powder and primers. Discreet Ballistics offers a more economical 190gr target load (pictured below) that is ballistically matched to the 188gr expanding load.
