What is the maximum velocity for a lead bullet using a gas check?

The velocity limit of cast bullets is dependant more on the hardness of the alloy than anything else. The use of gas checks should increase the limit by 300 to 400 fps. I use an alloy of 95% wheel weights and 5% bar solder. My limit is1400 fps for plain base and 1800 fps for gas checks before leading becomes a problem. Cleaning the bore often will help.

How much will a 30-06 bullet drop at 350 yds if sighted in at 200?
The answer will vary with the weight/ velocity of the bullet. Using an average velocity 165 gr bullet, a 30-06 rifle zeroed at 200 yds will strike ABOUT 15 inches below line of sight at 350 yds.
What is the velocity of a 50 cal bullet?
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.
Why projectile follow a curve path?
A projectile, launched by an initial force, such as exploding gunpowder in the barrel of a gun, travels in a straight line unless it is acted upon by another force. A projectile launched into the air from the earth's surface, is subject to the acceleration of gravity, which bends it's trajectory into a parabolic arc back to earth.
How do you determine mass using momentum and velocity?
Momentum = (mass) times (velocity)mass = (Momentum) divided by (velocity)
Calculated using displacement divided by time?
Velocity is displacement/time.

How much will a 300 bullet drop at 500 yards?
That is going to vary based on what kind of "300" you are using, what the type and weight of the bullet is, what your initial velocity is, and at what distance you are sighted in for your far zero.
How many grains of powder are in a 40 cal round?
There are a lot of variables involved with the number of grains of powder in any given caliber round. Most importantly are the type of powder and the weight of the bullet. After that is the loader's preference as to the velocity of the round. For example, I load a 155 grain .40 caliber bullet using Ramshot Zip powder for a "light" velocity of about 1050 feet per second using 5.3 - 5.4 grains of powder.
Can people reflect a bullet?
A person can reflect a bullet by using a mirror.

What is the maximum range of a 270?
Depending on the type of Bullet your using the maximum range of a 270 Win. will be between 350-600 yards, I've gotten my 270 to reach out to 600 yards with the scope maxed out on evaluation, I've only been able to do this with the Remington Express Pointed Soft Point 100 Grain round. Muzzle Velocity of that round is 3320 FPS with makes it about 400 FPS faster then most of your 130 Grain rounds. Hope that helps.

How is a bullet fired?
The hammer of a gun hits the end of the cartridge. This ignites a chemical reaction creating a hot gas. The gas expands rapidly, propelling the bullet out of the barrel at high velocity. More information than you would ever want to know about firearms and ammo can be found by using the link below.

When throwing a ball straight up when in the air with an initial velocity of 10 meters per second what will be it maximum height?
'Maximum height' means the exact point at which the velocity changes from upward to downward. At that exact point, the magnitude of the velocity is zero. It doesn't matter what the velocity was when it left your hand. That number determines the maximum height, but the velocity at that height is always zero. --------------------------------------------------------- Thus using the formula: (vf)e2 = (vi)e2+2*a*d vf = final velocity = 0 m/s vi = initial velocity = 10 m/s a = acceleration = gravity = - 9.81 m/s/s d = displacement (distance) = ? e is designating that the next figure is an exponent in the formula So the formula is: (0)e2 = (10)e2 + (2 * -9.81 * d) 0 = 100 + -19.62d adding 19.62d to both sides of the equation 19.62d = 100 dividing by 19.62 d = ~ 5.097 meters
