Doesnt. Twist and bullet weight will decide much of the accuracy. Long barrel for magnums because of the amount of powder being burned is important. Otherwise short barrel in any rifle will just increase muzzle flash and report.
The best barrel length and velocity calculator for optimizing firearm performance is the JBM Ballistics Calculator. It allows users to input various factors such as barrel length, bullet weight, and muzzle velocity to determine the optimal combination for maximum performance.
Impossible to answer without more details. What range? What bullet weight? What barrel length?
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.
Depends on the speed of the bullet, and the length of the barrel. In the case of a .22 rifle, firing a bullet at 1200 feet per second, from a 16 inch barrel, it will take 1/75th of a second for the bullet to leave the barrel.
Too broad a question. Muzzle velocity is determined by the specific cartridge, barrel length, barrel tolerances, etc.
The question is too vague because it depends on several factors such as, gun barrel length, bullet design, bullet weight.
Yes. The velocity of all common cartridges changes with the length of the barrel. In the case of a .22 LR, they develop the maximum velocity between 12 and 16 inches of barrel. Shorter than that, the gasses from the gunpowder have not accelerated the bullet as much as they can. Longer than that, gasses reached their max acceleration, and the bullet is now slowing from friction in the barrel.
In relation to firearms, it has to do with the rate of rifling in the barrel. Rifling is the spiral grooves that puts a spin on a bullet to increase it's accuracy. "Barrel twist" is the rate of spiraling or inches per turn. That is the length of barrel it takes to spin the bullet a full 360 degrees.
A .280 Remington bullet typically travels at a velocity of around 2,700 to 3,000 feet per second (fps), depending on the specific load and bullet type. This speed can vary based on factors such as barrel length and bullet weight. Overall, the .280 caliber is known for its effective performance in hunting and shooting applications.
The measurement for the bullet start typically refers to the bullet's diameter or caliber, which is expressed in either inches or millimeters. For example, a .45 caliber bullet has a diameter of 0.45 inches, while a 9mm bullet has a diameter of 9 millimeters. Additionally, bullet length and weight are important measurements, often specified in grains or grams, which can affect performance and accuracy.
The BULLET drop is the pull of gravity on the bullet as it is shot, resulting in the bullet lowering in altitude over a long distance. This is what long-distance shooters have to account for on their scopes. Different types of bullets with different weights, sizes, and shapes, as well as the barrel length and rifling ratios, affect how much the drop will be.
A 6.8mm bullet, specifically the 6.8mm Remington SPC (Special Purpose Cartridge), typically travels at speeds ranging from approximately 2,500 to 2,800 feet per second (fps), depending on the specific load and barrel length. This velocity allows for effective performance in both military and civilian applications, providing a good balance of power and accuracy. Different bullet weights and designs may slightly affect the exact speed.
