...unrealistic:
Bullets break the sound barrier, therefore you should hear a sonic boom - a CRACK!
Only when bullets slow under the sound barrier should you hear "Whoosh!"
Since the majority of bullets we see are fired from short range, we should have mostly "snap," "crackle," or "pop" sounds. I have had bullets fired over my head and I know what they sound like. Ask anyone who has pulled targets at a rifle range before and they'll tell you what bullets grazing past you sound like!
What do you think?
