I remember reading years ago that Roy Weatherby was working with the gov. during WW2 on a 5000fps round. That was about 20 years ago that I read this, so the outcome and other related info escape me. According to my Sierra reloading manual, 5th edition, page 259. A 22-250 40 gr. Blitzking can be pushed to 4200fps.
This edition was printed in 2003, so maybe newer gunpowder and bullets may get closer to that 5000fps mark. I don't know.
