This is a Skywalker Sound sound effect. It debuted in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981). The alternative variant (usually without a ricochet sound) exists in various pitches.
Sound Effects Descriptions[]
It kind of sounds like "Peyooooou!" blended with one of the "zoooooom!" tracers, also of the Skywalker Sound library; this is the most common variant. The "zooooom!" tracer (which is heard without the "peyoooou" variant) exists in various pitches. The "peyoooou" can be heard with no "zooooom!" tracer in The Recruit.
