The chart shows the speed of the bullet at 200 yard to be 1306 feet per second.
At this speed the bullet would travel 4,701,600 feet in 3600 seconds, which is an hour. There are 5280 feet in a mile, so divide 4,701,600 feet by 5280 feet, and one then realizes that the bullet is traveling at
890 miles per hour.
Do you wish to catch that bullet traveling 890 mile/hr in your hand?
