Muzzle velocity is a function of type and quantity of powder, as well as the mass of the projectile and the length of barrel. All of these factors being equal except the bullet sizes in the question, probably the 357 with the lesser mass would have the higher muzzle velocity.

What is the muzzle velocity of a 380 caliber?

It can vary from 900-1300 FPS depending on the weight and the firearm. Generally a smaller slug can have a greater velocity and a greater energy.


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.

Why would a cannon with a longer barrel give the cannonball more momentum?

A longer barrel allows the cannonball to be in contact with the expanding gases for a longer period of time, resulting in a greater acceleration and higher muzzle velocity. This increased velocity translates to greater momentum for the cannonball.
