Generally speaking, machine gun bullets travel at the same velocity as any other gun in the same caliber with the same length barrel. Bullets from guns can travel as slow as a few hundred feet per second up to 2000 feet per second (or more) depending on what it is.

It depends on several factors, but it can be a slow as a few hundred feet per second to a couple of thousand feet per second. The average for the most common types of ammo is somewhere about 1000 feet per second.
