How fast does 270 win shoot?

The .270 Winchester cartridge typically shoots at a muzzle velocity of around 3,000 feet per second (fps) with a 130-grain bullet. The exact speed can vary depending on the specific load and barrel length.


What is the velocity of the 223 caliber projectile?

The velocity of a .223 caliber projectile can vary depending on factors such as the specific load, barrel length, and type of firearm. Generally, the velocity can range from around 2,700 to 3,300 feet per second.


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.


What is the Difference between muzzle velocity and recoil velocity?

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.

What is the muzzle velocity of a .44 caliber bullet?

No one answer. There are dozens of different .44 caliber cartridges, and hundreds of different loadings of those cartridges. A rifle will have a different velocity than a handgun. This is sort of like "how fast can a V8 car go?"


Is a 223 caliber deadlier than a 308?

"Deadlier" is subjective. The .223 has more velocity on average, but the .308 has considerably higher muzzle energy.
