FPS - Feet Per Second
muzzle velocity is the velocity of bullet and recoil velocity is the velocity of gun.
the muzzle velocity on the 40gn vmax is 2200fps
it is the instantaneous velocity as a projectile leaves the barrel
2200 fps
Good question. Like many questions, the answer is, "It depends." It depends on how it is loaded, what powders are used, what bullet weight is used, and when the velocity is measured. For example, sitting in the chamber, the velocity is 0 feet per second. Ha ha. But, let's assume you meant "maximum velocity", which occurs just as the projectile exits the muzzle of the gun. A muzzle loading rifle, using a .50 caliber projectile and black powder, will have relatively slower muzzle velocities than .50 caliber modern cartridges. With modern powders and rifles, at the muzzle, the velocity may be as high as almost 3,000 feet per second. Shooters who load their own cartridges can achieve any velocity in between those extremes. Once the projectile leaves the muzzle, it begins slowing down from air friction until it reaches 0 feet per second again, on impact. Funny, but true.

No specific formula. MV is the speed that a bullet is moving when it leaves the muzzle of a firearm. It is measured. Variables that affect it include bullet weight, size, powder charge, composition of the bullet, and length of barrel.
It depends entirely on the muzzle velocity of the weapon you are using. The higher the muzzle velocity the farther the projectile will travel.
@ 1000 fps
fps means feet per second the fps (feet per second) is usually more than 120 edit: The "feet per second" refers to the muzzle velocity of the gun, or the speed of an airsoft BB exiting the barrel. Since the muzzle velocity is different depending on the weight of the BB, make sure to check what weight of BB the muzzle velocity was measured with. Often, airsoft sellers will measure the muzzle velocity with a lighter BB to make the airsoft gun sound more powerful, so you may want to ask what the muzzle velocity is for the weight of BB you are going to use. Many airsoft parks will not allow airsoft guns (other than sniper rifles) to have a muzzle velocity significantly over 400 feet per second, so it is important to know if the gun is too powerful to use. Also, anything with a muzzle velocity under 175 fps will not launch BB's very far.
Muzzle velocity of the SS-109 cartridge is about 3100 feet per second.
The L1A1 SLR used by the British military is in caliber 7.62 NATO, and has a muzzle velocity of about 2800 fps.
The M4A1 version of the M16 rifle has a muzzle velocity of about 2900 feet per second, firing the 5.56mm cartridge.
