I doubt any round gets faster after it leaves the muzzle .
Maybe you are sighting it so it gains over the first 200 meters and then falls to the correct angle to hit a target accurately at 400 meters .
The 400 meter target sighting will also be accurate for a target lying somewhere between 100 and 200 meters as the bullet gains trojectory .
Actually all distant targets have a sister target closer to the firing that the distant target is also accurate for .

Iron sights are ok when young and have 20/20 vision , I need telescopic sights now my vision is stuffed .

Over 200m the 55 grain from the 22/250 actually gains "height" - approx. 1" +

Not gains speed
