A June 30 Field & Stream column on the "Five Fastest Rifle Cartridges"  listed the feet per second (fps) the five fastest rifle cartridges:

.220 Swift — A 40-Grain .220 Swift round moves approximately 4,300 fps.

.257 Weatherby Magnum — An 87-Grain .257 Weatherby Magnum round moves approximately 3,700+ fps.

.30/378 Weatherby — An 165-Grain .30/378 Weatherby round moves approximately 3,400+ fps.

.224 Clark — An 80-Grain .224 Clark round moves approximately 3,500+ fps.
