    Engel Ballistics {google their web site} makes a subsonic 5.56 round that will function a M4 with a can on it.
    ONLY sold to the Military!!!
    Most that try to reload for subsonic and with a can on the gun, find that the bullets ruin the baffles. The bullets need "more" time to stabilize, when they leave the bore they are yawning and hitting the baffles.

    Don't try it.

    Won't cycle, and guaranteed to get the bullet stuck in the bore.

    I would say a heavy cast bullet should, might, maybe could work if shot at SS speeds but why not just use a standard velocity 22 LR and a suppressor?

    The MV needs to be kept under 1075 FPS to work and I doubt you could ever get it to cycle a gas operated gun.

    Check with JD Jones at SSK Industries, he has a modification to the gas system that can be switched from sub sonic to full velocity with full cycling function.
