It varies alot. The older, larger rifle calibres are generally around 2,100 to 2,500 feet per second. Standard modern rounds like .308, 6.5x55, .30-06 etc are generally around 2,500 to 2,900 feet per second. Modern varmint calibres like the .22-250 and .204 Ruger for example can exceed 4,000 feet per second.
