It varies greatly. From a handgun, it can be as slow as 500 feet per second up to around 1500 feet per second, and actually, even higher up to 2000 fps for some of the high energy rounds like the .600 nitro. From a rifle, it can be as much as 4800 feet per second, but on average, it's probably in the 1500-2500 fps range.
The speed of a bullet can vary depending on the type of firearm and ammunition used, but on average, a bullet can travel at speeds ranging from 1,200 to 1,800 kilometers per hour.
The average bullet speed can vary depending on the type of bullet and the firearm it is fired from. However, typical bullet speeds can range from about 800 feet per second (fps) to 3000 fps. High-powered rifles can have bullet speeds exceeding 3000 fps.
As a bullet moves down the barrel of a firearm, it gets propelled by expanding gases from the ignited gunpowder. The rifling inside the barrel causes the bullet to spin, improving its accuracy by stabilizing its flight. The bullet gains speed and energy as it accelerates down the barrel before exiting the muzzle.
Muzzle velocity is the velocity of a bullet as it leaves the firearm's barrel, while recoil velocity is the backward momentum that the firearm experiences when the bullet is fired. Muzzle velocity determines the bullet's speed and trajectory, while recoil velocity affects the shooter's ability to control the firearm during and after firing.
Apart from the speed of light, there really isn't any definite limit. Using technologies like rail guns or light gas cannons bullets can be accelerated to many times the speed of sound.
Known as the muzzle velocity, it is the fastest speed the bullet will have in flight.

The weight and shape of the bullet, the speed at which the bullet leaves the gun, and the degree of tilt of the barrel above the horizontal.

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.
The velocity, weight and shape of the bullet, and the density of air through which the bullet moves changes a firearm's range.
A firearm which requires an individual pull of the trigger for each bullet fired.
The barrel of a firearm is the tube through which a bullet travels when a gun is fired.
The rifling in a firearm is designed to cause the project (bullet) to spin, increase stability and accuracy.
