I will try to prove it with the help of phenomena characteristic only of real light with a real speed of 3 * 10 in 8th m/s in a vacuum, which meets the criteria on this wiki to prove the speed of light.
Avada Kedavra:
1) Let's start with the fact that this spell is described as a light beam of bright green color, and it is almost always characterized as a "blinding flash":
Voldemort was ready. As Harry shouted, “Expelliarmus!” Voldemort cried, “Avada Kedavra!” A jet of green light issued from Voldemort’s wand just as a jet of red light blasted from Harry’s — they met in midair — and suddenly Harry’s wand was vibrating as though an electric charge were surging through it; his hand seized up around it; he couldn’t have released it if he’d wanted to — and a narrow beam of light connected the two wands, neither red nor green, but bright, deep gold. Harry, following the beam with his astonished gaze, saw that Voldemort’s long white fingers too were gripping a wand that was shaking and vibrating.
2) Avada Kedavra, like real light, is reflected from metal surfaces. So, with the help of statues, Dumbledore reflected the light beam so that Harry would not be hurt. As well as the spell reflected the animated statues during the Attack on Hogwarts with the help of metal swords:
Harry had not even opened his mouth to resist. His mind was blank, his wand pointing uselessly at the floor. But the headless golden statue of the wizard in the fountain had sprung alive, leaping from its plinth, and landed on the floor with a crash between Harry and Voldemort. The spell merely glanced off its chest as the statue flung out its arms, protecting Harry.
3) Avada Kedavra, like real light, exhibits the phenomenon of light diffraction, that is, it diverges into the spectrum of colors of the rainbow due to the transition to another medium. This is clearly noticeable when Voldemort fights against Harry, and when Dumbledore and Grindelwald's spells collide, light waves also emanate from them, which manifest light diffraction and light divergence into rainbow colors:
4) The killing spell obviously surpasses various electric spells in speed, such as the one Grindelwald used in the first part of Fantastic Beasts. Since Avada Kedavra is a light beam, its flash is visually and actually much faster than the lightning emitted by Grindelwald in Newt, which suggests that this spell is faster than lightning. Moreover, we (the audience) cannot follow the movement of the Avada Kedavra light beam (look at the screenshots, there the spell is emitted and instantly destroys some kind of building at a distance), but it is quite possible to follow the movement of an electric discharge (given that it has hypersonic speed). At the same time, frame-by-frame video deceleration was used:
5) When Albus protects Credence from Grindelwald's deadly spell, he uses a shield of light, thereby sending electromagnetic rays towards Credence. The film shows that the rays of the wizards' spells match in speed, therefore, the Avada Kedavra should not be slower than the Albus light spell. We also take into account the fact that in the Wizarding World there are spells of natural light (Lumos Solem), as well as an unknown spell that Dumbledore was supposed to use in a duel against Voldemort in the Order of the Phoenix in the scenario version:
Lightning fast, Grindelwald turns and casts a spell toward CREDENCE WHEN . . .
. . . a BRIGHT, BLINDING SHIELD OF LIGHT materializes in front of Credence, courtesy of . . .
. . . Dumbledore and Aberforth, who—reflexively—independently—have cast protective spells.
As Grindelwald’s spell strikes the SHIMMERING SHIELD OF LIGHT, we follow his gaze up the path of the spell and discover . . .
. . . his and Dumbledore’s spells have knotted together.
Result:
After reviewing all the arguments I have given, it should be concluded that Avada Kedavra moves at the speed of light, in matter slightly less than the speed of light, but close to 300,000,000 m/s. Thus, it is necessary to update the attack speed of wizards with the help of Avada Kedavra, which in the future will greatly affect the scaling of the speed of the entire verse (it is high time to do this).
