Will sub-sonic 24grain round work well in Saiga12?

[ogiepampam 4]

Please help me out here, I'm not familiar yet with these types of inquiry.
Note: already made the fix with the "cycling issue" of my saiga and it had worked well using 32grain rounds.

 

Looking forward for your assistance. Thank you in advance!

For what?

wow, "Will sub-sonic 24grain round work well in Saiga12?". someone please tell me if I'm reading that correctly, or am I experiencing a LSD flashback from 1973? .

Look at this chart: http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff176/_DMC/DEP12.jpg

 

If the load weight and velocity is equal or greater to 3 dram it should work in a healthy saiga. Shot size is irrelevant. Shot type is irrelevant.

 

24 grains of what powder? ????

 

if you mean grams, (of shot) 24 grams = .846 oz. sonic limit is around 1129 FPS. So that would be between 2 1/2 and 2 3/4 dram eq. = NOT run.

 

A better question is why you want to run wimpy ammo? 3 dram is pretty soft already.

 

Subsonic is nice for suppressors, but for shotguns, you generally want to get the highest possible controllable velocity for extended range.

 

So you are getting confused or flabberghasted responses are because you aren't giving descriptions that make sense and your goal makes no sense without more info.
