If you have a very powerful pellet gun and use very light pellets, getting a speed of over ~1150 feet per second is possible and will break the sound barrier.
If you use WD-40 on the gun, it is recommended to wipe it off and then use gun oil. If you leave WD-40 inside the gun it could make the bullet faster, but it's more dangerous and wears down the parts inside.

Why is a subsonic bullet loud?
They are actually quieter than supersonic bullets. When a gun is fired, noise comes from 3 sources- the main one being the sudden blast of gasses that are released from the muzzle as the bullet leaves. That still exists with subsonic bullets- they are just traveling slower than the speed of sound (ABOUT 1200 feet per second) The second part of the noise is from the bullet breaking the sound barrier- a high pitched CRACK sound. Subsonics do not do that. Third part of the sound is from the action of the firearm extracting the fired cartridge, and loading a new one.

Does it matter on pellet guns what caliber pellet you use?
Yes, but it depends on what you want to use the gun for. If you want a high velocity pellet, then go with the .177 caliber. It is lighter, therefore it will travel faster. But if it breaks the sound barrier your accuracy is lost. If you want an air gun for hunting, then buy a .22 caliber. They are much larger and heavier resulting in more accuracy and more knock-down power on impact.Those are the most common pellet diameters.
Do bullets break the sound barrier?
YesThe sound barrier is roughly 1100fps depending on altitude. A lot of gun rounds are over the 1100fps threshold. Some pistol rounds are under this velocity. It is questionable if it creates a sonic boom, but the speed of sound is definitely reached and there are rounds that reach speeds of over 4000fps.
