Zastava M85 Conversion

Considering converting Zastava M85 223 Remington to 300 Whisper. Obviously a price orientated conversion as the Zastava retails for less than $600 AUD so its a bit of a wife winner. Here is the site for those of you interested in the base rifle:

Australian law prohibits silencers on firearms, unlike our New Zealand cousins, so I'm looking to use the firearm primarily as a low noise alternative with subsonic loads. Does anyone have some audio on the 300 Whisper firing unsilenced as a subsonic round? I still think it will be a worthwhile project for use on small hunting properties but I've been wrong before.

So does anyone have any opinions or experieces on the proposed project?
