    dumb idea....1 cause subsonic has to be spot on or will wound animals
    2 cause reloading in steel cases is problimatic
    3 cause the projectiles will likely be very hard so at subsonic speed will be akin to fmj
    4 cause the ammunition will kill 1000 times better as it is.....
    if you want subsonic stuff to try...get some made up properly or buy some...try it before you attemp to recreate it...awesome for plinking and close small peskis but it has big downside when yo uget it wrong.
