It depends on the muzzle speed produced by the particular brand of ammo.

What is the affective range of a 308 bullet?

A .308 bullet is a rimless and bottlenecked rifle cartridge. It has an effective range of around 500 feet if the shooter is good enough.


How fast does a 9mm bullet travel after being fired?

It depends on several factors, but it can be a slow as a few hundred feet per second to a couple of thousand feet per second. The average for the most common types of ammo is somewhere about 1000 feet per second.


What is velocity of 22 cal bullet?

Depends on WHICH 22 cartridge, and whether fired from a rifle or a pistol. A .22 BB cap from a pistol may have a muzzle velocity of 700 feet per second. .22 LR may range from 1000 fps to 1750 fps. Rifles will have a higher velocity than a pistol. PS- not all .22 caliber bullets are fired from rimfire cartridges. I shoot a .220 Swift, a centerfire rifle. It uses a large cartridge, firing a small bullet- at over 4000 fps


An observer stands 26m behind a marksman practicing at a rifle range The marksman fires the rifle horizontally the speed of the bullet is 790 ms air temperature is 20C How far does each rilfe travel?

There is only one rifle described in the question and it travels 0 m. nice try. The whole question is shown below: An observer stands 26 m behind a marksman practicing at a rifle range. The marksman fires the rifle horizontally, the speed of the bullets is 790 m/s, and the air temperature is 20°C. How far does each bullet travel before the observer hears the report of the rifle? Assume that the bullets encounter no obstacles during this interval, and ignore both air resistance and the vertical component of the bullets' motion.


How do you determine the range in a projectile motion?

Wind, elevation, trajectory, projectile weight, projectile configuration, barrel length, barrel rifling, friction or resistance in the barrel, force (charge) behind the projectile. There are other enviornental elements that can affect range as well.

Does a higher muzzle velocity equal a longer range?

All other factors equal (bullet mass & frontal area, angle of barrel, etc) a higher muzzle velocity will make the bullet travel further horizontally as if falls to the ground. If the barrel is level when fired , the bullet will hit the ground at the same time as a bullet dropped simutaneously from muzzle height


What is the speed of the bullet fired from AK 47?

In the 2000-2200 fps range.


How far a 44magnum pistol bullet travel?

Accurately- about 100 yards. Total range, fired at a high angle, no accuracy? About 2500 ft, depending on which 44 bullet, and which gun it is fired from.


How far beretta bullet travel?

Beretta is a MAKE of firearm. It does not tell us the model or caliber, which will determine the maximum range that a fired bullet can travel. You need to specify.


Does a bullet rise or fall first after fired?

The sound may or may not "come first" when a bullet is fired. Particularly if we make the decision after collecting data from down range. The muzzle velocity of some firearms does notexceed the speed of sound. In those cases, the sound will reach a "target" down range before the bullet does. But the muzzle velocity of other firearms does exceed the speed of sound, and in those cases, the bullet will arrive down range before the sound does.


How far does bullet fired out of a Barret 50 cal travel?

Its effective range is about 2,000 meters but it can travel up to 6,800 meters.


What is the maximum effective range and maximum range for the Ruger P95?

The maximum effective range for a typical 9mm Parabellum handgun is about 50 meters. The bullet can be driven to a maximum range of over 1000 meters- when fired at a 45 degree angle. This will have no accuracy, and can only guarantee the bullet will hit the earth- somewhere.


How far can a 45 ACP bullet travel?

In the case of the 1911A1 pistol, in .45 ACP, firing a standard 230 gr. round nosed bullet, when elevated to 33 degrees, the bullet will travel 2096 ft. Not accurately, but that is it's maximum RANGE. When fired from a carbine or submachinegun, the range may be greater.


How far will a subsonic 60 grain 22 cal bullet fired at 1050fps drop at 75 yards?

Depends on the range at which the rifle is zeroed.


How far will a 38 caliber bullet travel?

To some extent, this will depend on the weapon that fires the cartridge. Assuming that your question relates to the .38 Special cartridge, when fired from a 4 inch barreled revolver, the bullet would have a maximum range of about 1800 meters. This would be when the barrel was elevated at about a 45 degree angle. The effective range (usable) would be less than 100 meters. If fired from a rifle (yes, there are rifles that will fire a .38 Special) the range would be greater than if fired from a revolver. If fired from a 2 inch barreled (snub nosed) revolver, the max range would be less.


What is Range of the ak-47?

~400 meters effective range (Lethal and predictive) ~900 meters Firing range ( CAN be lethal from 400 to 900 m) ~2000 meters maximum range (maximum range the bullet can travel away - fired in a 45 degree angle)


A projectile is fired in such a way that its horizontal range is equal to 14.5 times its maximum height What is the angle of projection?

15.42 degrees
