hey, i just got my first .22 rifle, i bought 500 rds of Remmington high velocity "thunderbolts" and a 50rd box of Remmington subsonic hollow points. but when i went to shoot them, the subs sounded just slightly quieter than the thunderbolts.
i looked at the box and it claims that the subs leave the muzzel at 1050fps. i know at around 68 degrees i dry air the speed of sound is around 1125fps.
the weather here when i was shooting was 38F and 70% humidity. so im wondering, is that enough to make my subsonics(1050fps) break the sound barrier. or did i just get a messed up batch
any help would be appreciated, thank you
