Gentlemen,
Can we please call it by its proper name. .275 Rigby
None of this johnny foreign nomenclature on the BBS.

on the estate I worked on we had both. The rifle the toffs would use was a Rigby and every year it would have to be taken to the gun smiths to have one thing or another done to it and even then I never trusted the thing to be on from one day to the next. The estate rifle was a Mauser with a lovely butter knife bolt that got dogs abuse and was never off. Guess which one we always took out for the hinds?
We always called it the 7mm

Try it with a heavy, cast bullet. Quieter, more consistent and harder to mess up. It is not like you need 300 yard subsonics.

Subs
Hi
The only advice I can give is use a heavy for caliber bullet
But with a short bearing surface to aid stability
Seat bullet in case and mark we’re base of bullet is on the neck
THATS YOUR MAXIMUM LOAD USING TRAIL BOSS
I usually do my load testing over a crony to see when subsonic
THEN AND ONLY THEN I put the mod on when I see holes in target not key holes (unstable)
If they are unstable and your using a mod it will destroy it
Good luck and have loads of FUN 😄
