has 300BLK ever lived up to the idea of a subsonic round that "performs"? if so what is it, and what is the minimum barrel length for said round? Does adding a can change that minimum length (does the can act as additional barrel?)?
Hornady has a 190gr bullet sold as both loaded ammo and component that is specifically designed for .300 BLK sub use. Some discussion and link in the PDW thread. The only benefit I see to it over a 230 +P HST is external ballistics.

I loaded some of the 185gr Powdered tungsten as a .300BK Sub Sonic -- I was looking for an interesting performer at lower velocities.
I have not gotten them into any gel at this point yet.
Years ago some of the 4-6" M2Corp AR PDW's where tested - this was before the newer 5.56mm loads - and they didn't perform well at all, and the 7.5" didn't either.
With personnel experience from Sig 552's, a very short barrel 5.56mm is absolutely not what one wants to use to defend ones self.

Following.
I have no other information on this subsonic hunting load, but SIG recommends a 9" or longer barrel.
