Don't use junk ammo in supressors, dirty. Dynapoint is junk.

Also, the GEMTECH Ruger 22/45 oasis won't feed CCI's Segmented HP Subsonic - they are too long. The CCI's Segmented HP HV will feed because the casing is slick (vs. the lead bullet causing more friction/digging in while sliding up the ramp), but it's not subsonic.

Regular velocity will likely be subsonic in a handgun (like a Walther P22 or Ruger 22). If that's all you shoot, get good quality 22 regular velocity and just test it out. the bullet will need to travel more than a few feet (so, dont just test it by shooting the ground near your feet, it needs to travel a bit to hear the sonic boom if any).
