A 5.56mm round, typically fired from a rifle, travels at a muzzle velocity of around 2,900 to 3,200 feet per second. To convert this to an hourly speed, it would equate to approximately 1,971,000 to 2,112,000 feet per hour. This is roughly 374 to 400 miles per hour. Therefore, a 5.56 round travels extremely fast, making it effective for long-range shooting.
