See 3:50 and on in this video . You can see what it looks like when a bullet is right in or just below the transonic zone and how the bullet is struggling to stay straight . It also explains what Markco was saying and how even though the tip of the bullet is subsonic the air passing over it is supersonic when you're just under supersonic speeds . IMHO It's those shock waves on the bullet in the transonic zone that destabilizes the bullet and disrupts the bullets flight path . I'd assume bullet shape , weight and spin rate all have an effect on how the bullet handles the transonic zone .
