I believe most 22lr pistols don't require subsonic ammo.
I think 5" or 5.5" barrel length is the magic number.
I was researching this a few months ago for a 1022 SBR project. I want it to run bulk 22 and suppress well.
Here is a thread on AR15.com
What barrel length keeps .22LR subsonic? - AR15.Com Archive
It doesn't matter to me if they require it or not, I have quite a bit of it.
Thanks for the info though.

+My Ruger SR22 fun gun will eat anything that says CCI or Blazer on it! It will absolutely not tolerate anything Federal (sloping shoulder on the rim I think). Most Remington will function, but not for too long because it is so dirty. I haven't tried WWB yet. Just picked some the other day, and hope to get to the range soon with it. As far as sub-sonics go, the SR22 seems to love them. The SR22 is available with athreaded barrel though I haven't seen one yet. It's a great fun gun. I've even carried it accasionly. It's that accurate. I believe that accuracy is every bit as important as pure stopping power in a defensive situation. With the SR22 I am far more accurate with double and triple taps than with my Shield and my G19. Don't get me wrong, if i've going south of 96th St. I will have one or both of the 9mms with me.
I do not like the way the mags are a pain in the ass to seat in the 22/45. My kid had difficulty with the gun and I didn't like it myself. I'd insert and drop the mag afew times in whatever gun your looking at
TT, Is your 22/45 a Mark III? I have the same issue with my boy. I am blaming it on the Mark III mag drop safety. I just haven't made a bushing to replace the space it takes up it yet to find out.
