Best Answer

DEPENDS ON which RIFLE, AND which BULLET.

A standard velocity .22 Short has a muzzle velocity of about 1100-1200 feet per second. At the other end of the range, I have a .220 Swift (high powered, bottleneck, centerfire cartridge) that fires a bullet at about 4,200 ft per second. MOST of the others are somewhere between those 2 extremes.
