About 2900 feet per second, or 1,977 miles per hour.
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.
the muzzle velocity on the 40gn vmax is 2200fps
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.
well velocity is much stronger than muscle velocity because air velocity is when wind speed catches up with the heaver object and slows it down and muscle velocity is how much weight you can carry there is your answer hope you understand your welcome - Jamie
Muzzle velocity is typically measured using a chronograph, which is a device that calculates the speed of a projectile as it leaves the muzzle of a firearm. The chronograph works by measuring the time it takes for the projectile to pass through two sensors a known distance apart, allowing for the calculation of the velocity.

The M82 Barrett fires standard .50 BMG cartridges with a muzzle velocity of about 2799 feet per second. As with all bullets, they begin to slow after leaving the muzzle.

It depends entirely on the muzzle velocity of the weapon you are using. The higher the muzzle velocity the farther the projectile will travel.

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.
Muzzle velocity of the SS-109 cartridge is about 3100 feet per second.
