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.
@2800 FPS
Depends on which .50 cal, and which cartidge. If you mean a Barrett Model 82A1 sniper rifle, in .50 BMG, standard ball ammo is ABOUT 2800 fps.
Depending on bullet weight and powder, 650-1000 fps or more.
In a snail, YES. In a bullet, NO!
The answer is dependant on the load and round. An .22 short cartridge can be under 800 FPS while a .22 LR cartridge can be over 1800 FPS. So it is dependent on the cartridge size, the bullet weight and shape, and the quantity and type of propellant used.
around 3500 fps
The speed of a bullet can vary depending on the type of ammunition and firearm used. On average, bullets travel at speeds ranging from 900 feet per second (fps) to over 3,000 fps. Some high-powered rifles can propel bullets at speeds exceeding 4,000 fps.
It's going to vary between manufacturer's and bullet weights, but avg velocity is around 1050 fps
That is sort of like asking how many miles per hour does 100 horsepower equal. Ft lbs is energy, and FPS is speed. There IS a formula to calculate the energy (in foot lbs) of a bullet, but to use that, you need to know SPEED in FPS, and WEIGHT (in grains) of the bullet. A 40 grain bullet at 1000 fps is pretty weak. A 400 gr bullet at 1000 fps can drop a moose.
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.
Bullets alone have no velocity. The .223 CARTRIDGE, when fired from an M16 rifle, will drive its bullet at about 3,200 fps. However, velocity depends on the makeup of the cartridge (powder charge, bullet weight) , and which firearm it is fired from.
