question about muzzle velocity

I take both a model 627 357 pistol and a lever action carbine in 357 to the range. The rounds I usually use are 142 grain fmjtc. The ballistics report on them from the maker says they have Muzzle Velocity: 1420 fps; Muzzle Energy: 650 ft. lbs, but it says nothing about how they measure it. Is it from a long barrel pistol like a model 627? If so how much more muzzle velocity would it have from the carbine?
