Sorry I wasn't more clear; I was referring to the projectile velocity. Since it's not as big and heavy as the 50mm, you can make it more powerful by just having it go faster. However, I advise against actually listing the muzzle velocity; just state in the weapon's history or about section that the rounds are smaller, and much faster than the old 50mm rounds. As for the ammunition article itself, I suggest simply changing the standard ball round to Tier 6, and the armor-piercing high-explosive to Tier 5.
The reason for this is that the APHE rounds sacrifice structural integrity to fit in that explosive payload, in return for popping something from the inside out should it penetrate.
Additionally, you could also include discarding sabot rounds for the weapon at Tier 7, with the diameter of the flechette being up to you. I prefer a 7.62mm/.30 cal one, though if you're feeling particularly humorous, you can go for a diameter of 9mm. Naturally, the tradeoff for its armor piercing ability is poor post-penetration effects.
EDIT: Is this a Gauss/Coil Gun or a Railgun by the way? It's one or the other, and I see the mention of coils as well as rails.
How long is it, then? The 2905 says its barrel is 4 feet. Especially given that this 20mm somehow has "better penetration and damage" than the 50mm, I think it's important to list exactly how much you've shortened it β and also because it's important for roleplayers to know the dimensions of their Mindy.Advances in miniaturization allowed the barrel length to be shortened significantly.
