There are some bullets that go faster than the speed of sound. However, Mythbusters tested this and it is very hard to use a sonic boom to break glass. They needed an airplane 200 meters above ground descending at a 5 degree angle before one out of many glasses broke, and it was only because it was warping... The height that the airplane flew is illegal to do except in places that are used to train pilots.<br><b>References : </b><br> 768 miles per hour at sea level.
