150 grain bullet with a long barrel and a muzzle velocity of 4000 feet/second, is that possible?

I believe Hornady makes something close to that in .300 Weatherby Magnum.
How about .50 BMG? IIRC, a ~650 gr bullet at ~3000fps?

the 5.56 NATO round has the high velocity,

There are a lot of cartridges that get much faster than 5.56x45.
