To be fair, most of the gear with +hit that you need to get you started drops in Kara so expecting him to have a rating much further than 100 is perhaps unfair.
That's just not remotely true. I had 190hit as sub rogue before i started kara, you just need to pick the right gear for your spec and run instances/heroics till you get the drops(wastewalker/assassination gear comes to mind). My requirements for kara were much higher for sub rogues: 175hit, 25% crit, 1650ap. Also required that they use hemo sword/fist/mace, as dagger sub for pve is teribad dam.
A 'good' measuring stick for pve sub rogues is how much agi they have stacked. When my guild 1st started kara i had 750 agi unbuffed, and just before i switched to combat spec(about 5weeks later), i could get over 900 agi fully raid buffed(over 1k when mongoose procced).
