Let's have a creative thread.
Create a round of ammunition.

>Easy mode
Can be used by weapons in current use.
>Hard mode
Used by weapons never adopted, or by prototypes
>IMPOSSIBLE
Has to be realistic, no semon rounds or cereal ammo.

6.5x77H
The objective is to take a round that's perfectly okay in terms of width, and make it a fair bit longer (in the bullet) and pack even more powder behind it to make a nice little anti-personnel round.
Very little taper, with the rim and bullets ogive (please correct that spelling) being optimized for feeding in a bolt action rifle, preferably a generic ass Mauser action scaled appropriately.
>7.92x40
Ultra heavy intermediate caliber meant for highly urbanized areas (weaight gives increased penetration)
Also enables easier manufacturing of
Explosive
Tracer
Tungsten penetrator
And hollow point rounds. Specifically meant for carrying payloads.
>6.5x23
A nice middle ground between 5.7 and the normal shit, like 9mm.
Not quite 7.62 Tok in terms of size, but makes up for it in speed.
NOT tapered, though semi rimmed (improved extraction in a browning style locking mechanism, as well as making head spacing easier to cheapen manufacturing)
Loaded FUCKING. HOT.

Honestly?
Almost anything else I can think of would just be messing with the materials of pre-designed rounds to facilitate easier penetration of things, better ballistics, etc.
But you wanted fictional, so that's what you got.

.50AE necked to 5.56

It would fit inside in a pistol grip, would pierce armor, require minimal new tooling, and the only compromise is that you trade double-stacked mags for single-stack.

But wait, theres more. Fit it into a mag like pic related , but reverse the helical mag direction so it doubles as a stock. Now a pistol round can double as an smg round.

But wait, theres more: you make a polymer case with aluminum lining and it'll also fire at full auto without damaging the barrel.

5.6x45 "five six caliber". Same case and bullet diameter as 5.56x45, but overall longer round that allows low drag bullets with 14.5mm ogive length. 5.6x45 is backwards compatible with 5.56x45. 5.56x45 can fit into larger magazine and action of 5.6x45 guns. 5.6x45 obviously can't fit into 5.56x45 magazines and guns.

>just stuff a longer bullet into a 5.56 case
This. Different case makes caliber incompatible with legacy 5.56x45. Whole idea is fixing poor form factor and long range performance of 5.56x45 bullets but at the same time not falling into trap of snowflake caliber "i don't have my special ammo at hand so my gun collects dust" Because you can shoot 5.56x45 through this special gun when 5.6 ammo is not available.

Gentleman. Meet the the .577 modern.
A .577 full metal jacketed boat tail round mated to the reliable and proven 12 gauge cartridge.
Notice that the shell casing is necked down to have the same dimensions as the venerable Zulu and afghan killing round so much enjoyed by the regiments.
The .557 retains the same proven black and muslem killing power and provides increased accuracy and power enabling large holes to be placed in the enemies of the crown.
This is the .557 modern ball. Also to be demonstrated for you today will be the .557 modern soft nose, trace, incendiary (for when you went to also cremate the target), the tungsten core body armour defeating round and the high explosive round.
They will be fired from the prototype L9A1 bullpup .577 using the twenty round magazine.

If you gentlemen would move to your left we have seating arraigned so you can see the marksman and at five hundred meters, the blacks and Muslems chained to posts. Please take a pair of binoculars as you pass the table.

>.32NAA
Take a .380acp case. Neck it down to .32cal. Run it at 9x19 pressures to throw a 70gr bullet at up to 1100fps.
Both still work in blowback guns, both have less felt recoil than their parent calibers despite offering decent velocity and much-improved penetration with expanding hollowpoints, to the point where they meet FBI minimum penetration requirements out of ~2" barrels.

Only true if there is a biological origin (read: harvesting) or it is volatile.

Some kind of modern equivalent to the 7.62tok round using a 9mm case that's bottlenecked down to accomodate a 7.7mm 90 - 100gr projectile. A smaller, lighter bullet would mean a marginally faster velocity with marginally less recoil. Hollow points could be made to expand pretty dramatically, and even jacketed rounds would have some modest armor penetration capabilities.

Sharing a case with 9mm means that any pistol firing 9mm could theoretically be adapted to fire this new cartridge with a new barrel and recoil spring.

I can do better if you want that.

I use 3d laser sintering to create a porous geometric metalic foam from 1090 which is then hardened as if metallic glass was trying to be made, I then pressure cast sodium into it. Vacuum metal deposition is used to jacket the bullet in tungsten. The bullet is them brought exactly to spec using focused ion beam milling.

Gel tests. The .25NAA will achieve between 6 and 7" of penetration with the 35gr XTP hollowpoint, which expands to .395" consistently. Which is about on par with .25ACP FMJ's and over an inch deeper than literally any hollowpoint .32acp while offering much greater expanded diameter. Still not ideal, but it's a mousegun. The heavier 51gr bullet achieves 9-11" of penetration at the cost of lower expanded diameter (.340" on average).

The 71gr factory load in the .32NAA achieves 13" of penetration and a .410" expanded diameter, which is better than some of the older 9x19 hollowpoints still in production (looking at you Golden Saber) while meeting FBI penetration requirements. The 60gr factory load achieves 10-11" of penetration but offers a .450" expanded diameter.

Note all of these are from a 2.5" barrel, not a 4"+ duty-gun barrel like all 9x19, .40s&W, and .45acp are tested from.

If the case is the same and you just have a longer bullet, it WOULD chamber in a 5.56 chamber. It might not go into a standard magazine, but it would absolutely fit into a bolt gun.

I'm sorry, but that's terrible. Only the blissfully ignorant would trust a bullet with 7" of penetration, you'd be much better off with ball.

Straight wall semi-caseless with a reusable piezo primer. The case is actually a polymer skirt snapped into a cannelure on the bullet. The base has pseudo-threads that screw into the other end of the polymer skirt, with something like Loctite keeping it from backing out.

The primer function is handled by a piezo crystal in the primer pocket. A single primer/base assembly would be reusable for potentially dozens of shots.

Upon firing, the polymer skirt separates from the base assembly. The skirt stays with the bullet, filling a function similar to the skirt on a Minie ball. The whole bullet/skirt assembly could also work like a Gyrojet round, depending on the internal architecture of the skirt and a bi-phase propellant structure.

There would undoubtedly be size limitations, both upper and lower.

9mm semi-explosive compressed powder.

Used exclusively in 3-shot burst pistols. First two rounds are the above, a highly combustible compressed powder in a thin aluminum jacket. Third round is an explosive/incendiary round. First two bullets impact with minimal impact, bursting into a cloud of explosive material which the third round ignites to make a thermobaric explosion that'll kill the hell out of whatever dumb bastard pissed you off.

I like the guy with the .32 super idea.
Perhaps we could adjust the physical bullet to be slightly more spitzer in shape as well?

I've always thought that someone needed to come up with a round specifically to modernize the civilian pocket pistol market.

Make the .32 super, then couple it with a handgun slightly smaller than the PSM (in terms of footprint; the width is absolutely perfect as far as I'm concerned), preferably locked breech, and I'd buy the ever living fuck out of it.

Lets take it up a notch. Since you put a tungsten jacket on it, you might as well make a snowflake platform to fire it. Yes, this is one of those times when the P word is appropriate.

Make it a bull barrel with an oversized smooth bore. Each bullet comes with a matched barrel liner, guaranteed 0.10 MOA out to 5K yards. Now lets ship each round/liner combo in a custom case, with 12 biometric locks keyed to the end user's full set of fingerprints and retina patterns.

Laser Guided Mortar Rounds
and with optional airburst package

You see, if properly mass produced with the tech we had 10 years ago... we could be launching ultra efficient mortar attacks, against buildings, even against vehicles. The key being mass produced, it would keep the costs down to a reasonable level.

Now you've got the equivalent of an air strike in a portable format, even more effective than artillery in some regards.

Mortar crews still have to be adept at aiming their ordinance, but a spotter designator can make sure it hits exactly what they want it to. All they have to do is get it in the same general area and it will deviate course to intercept the dot.

Easy Mode achieved - rounds could be made for all available US military mortars.

Okay how about this... a slightly modified 5.7mm round.

* Rienforce the case web at the base.
* Load it hotter, to roughly .30 carbine level (about double the firepower it normally has)
* Load 5.56mm EPR rounds into it.

If any physical changes need to be made to it I would say increasing the case length to 30mm and possibly increasing the width of the case to 9mm would still be tolerable.


>>34468941
This is basically the ammunition the Venom Gun used in RTCW game (except it was .50cal necked down to 7.92mm, or it was firing 7.92 sabot rounds).

The advantage of this is you can have it in a pistol with a rather wide (but not long) grip. Unlike a .223 since you're reducing length and increasing diameter on the case.

The problem is capacity, the magazine capacity is going to be fucked pretty much... 20 rounders that are as long as 30 rounders.

Still if you want an intermediate rifle round that fits in a handgun too, priorities would dictate.

Also meant to say the advantage of a high powered ("magnum") 5.7mm is you could use it as a handgun round, PDW round...

And even in a rifle package it would be somewhat effective and worthwhile to have, both because of added ammo capacity and reduced weight for the ammunition. By having it loaded hot, with a longer barrel, you could be driving a 62gr bullet at 2300fps (which isnt that much less performance than a .223 out of an M4).

> the military just loves their bullet-slinging capabilities, and this allows them to sling more bullets in the same general direction, while retaining about the same effectiveness because of that EPR design.

Also have the bullets' grinding surface coated in a lubricant like teflon or tungsten di-sulphide, and possibly tweaked with some gas check rings. This improves barrel life, and muzzle velocity.
>>34480314
yeah but qt pi, we've had the technology to deploy this on a field level for at least the last 15 years... they could have made it workable in the 90s but it would've been too expensive back then.

This is pretty much better than having OICW or XM-25 because you're getting a much more effective projectile that can defeat cover, with a much longer range (miles?).

It wouldn't be able to exactly perform the same function, but making it very accurate is pretty much equivalent to launching a rocket into some place.

And I mean lobbing a mortar round right into the window of some place is just about as effective and making a tiny grenade blow up 5 feet inside.

This opens the door for lowering and raising the bar on the battle rifle cartridge arena. If you can get the main infantry rifles chambered in this, then you can have the DMRs and LMGs chambered in 6.5mm (creedmoor or lapua).

And you can have MMGs chambered in that .338 norma nonsense to reduce the role of .50s on the battlefield (leave those as vehicle mounted weapons).

Its better to carry a lighter gun and ammo around even if you have to fire twice as many rounds with it.

> reference was to your numbers since they ended in 314

Im not done with this loadout either. Pic related is a monstrous 14.9mm long range bullet for an equally monstrous sniper rifle some douchebag is building.

This fucking thing supposedly gets 5 km accuracy - theorized, or actualized, we dont know yet, but with the profile of that long ass bullet with its driving bands and boat tail (probably just like a .375cheytac) I don't doubt it.

Now I want you to consider having a mounted, chain-driven semi automatic gun for a standard military vehicle (no its not a machinegun). Designed completely around accuracy, complete with a ballistics package. Its the size of an M2 but its got more penetration than a 14.5mm.

> and with that ballistics package you're looking at guaranteed hits out to 1 mile, a feat that an M2 is only going to accomplish with repeated bursts
> and with an experienced operator and a guy calculating windage we're talking 2 mile category

Single shots delivered at great range by average operators that can plow through most ground cover and light vehicle plating. As a solid non-exploding round they can even (legally?) engage individuals, turning a vehicle and its operator into a DMR.

This is one of those things that you wouldn't realize the benefits of it until you had a bunch of these things all over the place. It doesn't look as good on paper as say, just being able to call in an airstrike, but its alot more convenient.

Also doubt that standard fortifications, masonry walls with sandbags on the back are going to stop this. You get FLIR going and you can shoot people behind the walls from so far away they dont expect it.

I'm pretty sure accuracy would suffer compared to a ball, but it ought to penetrate plate armor much better.
>>
>>34480657
>finned sabot
>less accuracy than subcaliber lead ball
>>
>>34480644

I meant to say that having it as a Semi Automatic chain-driven weapon helps retain the accuracy of a single shot because it doesn't rely on recoil or gas to cycle the round. The action happens mechanically almost the same each time.

Since the gun would be designed around accuracy the barrel would also be harmonically tuned - im thinking Octagon shaped heavy barrel here, just to keep costs down rather than making some spiral thingie.

> it would basically be about as big as pic related, and would be robotically controlled from inside the vehicle, the operator would use a joystick/controller to fire it about the same way that UGVs are piloted
> we be all 80s cyberized combat now

Making it semi automatic also fulfills the need to use it as a defensive weapon up close, its not as effective as a .50mg but if you can pop off 2 rounds per second it can still be viable against enemy vehicles (since anything less than an APC it will go through one side and out the other).

And well, it means at shorter ranges (500-1500 yards) you can give the enemy a hard time because their cover just will not do it against this thing.

Belt fed means you can have 50-100 of this, and since its in a vehicle you can carry alot of ammo for it.

>>34480657
smoothbore caps ball to about 50m and thats it

being that what you're talking about is a flechette it already stabilizes itself because of the fins, they knew about this because of arrows and thats the real reason that rifling came about (besides reducing fouling or extending the capacity for it)

experimental 5.56mm flechette rounds were getting 800 yard accuracy and APDS rounds for tanks reach out for miles

I expect this musket round to get at least 200 yards reliability.
>>
>>34480715
Remember that they'd be hand-made and with medieval measuring tools and materials. If the sabot doesn't separate cleanly and all at once, it might fuck up the trajectory of the (possibly unbalanced) dart.

Anyway, I'd really want to test the feasibility if I had a replica musket.
>>
>>34480750

Probably better to do a condensed-pulp type of route, then wrap it in wax to keep it lightly sealed. You would need moulds for this though so that the insertion of the flechette remained precise.

It may not have good durability, some of them will come apart just in the process of daily movement and jostling. This would be solved by putting them in a wooden case, but thats going to limit how many you can carry or how fast you can reload them.

While we're at it im going to dump another idea ive had, straight out of vidya (quake 1).

Meant more for erecting temporary structures quickly, a defense contractor could also be told they want their propellant-driven nailguns to be viable weapons too.

Uses a 10mm Auto case with a long sabotted nail as shown (the case is maybe long enough to snugly support the nail/sabot while retaining powder capacity to drive it).

The sharp fins on the nail increase internal wounding capabilities, while also making it work better to hold thick wood or plastic beams together (like a screw does).
>>
>>34480825
>Probably better to do a condensed-pulp type of route, then wrap it in wax to keep it lightly sealed.
That sounds like a good idea. The first idea that came to me was fastening a strip of animal glue-soaked vellum to a metal rod (dart-diameter) and winding it really tight around it to desired thickness, then using a spinning circular blade to cut it cleanly along the length twice (rotating 90 degrees between cuts) almost all the way to the end. The dart would then be inserted until the fins touch the connecting part of the tube.

And along the lines of where this RP came from, since they would literally have tens upon tens of thousands of rounds of this shit laying around... they also requisitioned a LMG capable of shooting them out at a high rate of fire.

That way in case of any serious "problems" they could just use this ammunition which was already plentifully available rather than investing in the logistics for a 7.62mm machinegun.

> if you need longer range, just get closer, we're talking about xeno slipgate threats here

It would be about as deadly and with about the same penetration, at the 100-200ish yards reach that a weapon system like this could be useful at.

SLAP is not "standard" in any way. Black tip APs would be more feasible for standard issue, but then you COULD armor something with thick enough plates to resist that without going unmanageably overweight.

Good luck actually carrying around that rifle on patrol though. Oh, and extra good luck on not coincidentally getting into a firefight with normal old human infantry, because you might be pissing away $11.25 (inflation 1998 -> 2017) per shot on things that might be better handled by large amounts of cheap 5.56.

Question: With hyper velocity rounds is it not better to go with a smoothbore design and fin stabilized rounds rather than rifled barrels? Seems like the usual problems of erosion caused by really hot loads can be fixed by having no extra resistance along the barrel beyond surface contact.

My point is that anything humanoid can't feasibly be armored to the point of needing anti-tank weapons, SLAP rounds are proof of this.

>>34482139
>anything humanoid
One can theoretically armor a humanoid design better than any wheeled or tracked design because the joints have a limited range of motion rather than needing infinite free rotation. Sliding armor plates can give a small humanoid walker bot plenty of protection, even up to anti-SLAP grade. It is certainly easier to do with small scale robots than big ones.

>>
>>34482157
>you're going to use anti tank rounds on things which would be essentially infantry?
I was talking about combat robots on the scale of humans, as opposed to big mecha. .50 BMG SLAP rounds can penetrate up to 1.34" of RHA at 500m (http://www.inetres.com/gp/military/infantry/mg/50_ammo.html), any human-scale robot with steel armor that thick would have very limited mobility, and any other sort of armor would either be even worse (Kevlar, Aluminum) or total Sci-Fi.
>>
>>34482233
Weak points and gaps in the armor can be left for the joints to have full mobility while still being incredibly hard targets to get at. Leaving the hips and ankles less armored isn't even that much of a problem if DARPA properly programs the Beep Boop to take cover like any other soldier.

A robot also doesn't have the limitations of needing to be built exactly like a human. The skeleton of a bot could be made vastly different internally in order to allow for good mobility despite having an inch and a half of metal skin on most parts of its body.
>>
>>34482161
Humanoid robots have more compatibility with current equipment than robotic pack animals, because everything is already designed for humans to interact with. A humanoid robot would be able to sit in an APC just as a human soldier would, could handle just about any weapon since weapons have always been designed for humans, etc.
>>
>>34482268
Internal layout and leaving joints comparably unarmored can't get around the fact that a human has a certain surface area, and reducing the hit probability on less armored sections would mean armoring a majority of that surface area. A man has a body surface area of about 1.9m^2, covering even a small portion of that area with 1.5" thick steel would be incredibly heavy and detrimental to mobility and not literally falling through the floor of a regular building.

Furthermore, wheeled and tracked vehicles are much easier to armor than humanoids due to having far fewer complex joints. Compare the complexity of armoring something like a tank, which just has an armored hull, turret, mantlet, road wheels, and tracks, to a suit of plate armor.
>>
>>34482338
Complexity is different from actual possibility. Wheels and tracks cannot armor the drive systems much without getting in the way and there will always be a significant gap since you don't want the wheel to rub against the hull.

Reducing the size of the robot would give it an even greater penalty to mobility for a given thickness and %coverage of armor, since the weight of the armor would decrease exponentially but the internal volume for things like batteries, hydraulics, etc. would decrease cubically.

Notice all of the gaps in the plates of the Gothic armor, such as around the crotch, armpits, knees, etc. This is due to the complex joints of the human body, all sorts of ball, saddle, hinge, etc. joints which form the body. A tank doesn't have joints of that sort which introduce weaknesses, it only has holes in the armor which round things such as the turret, axles for road wheels, etc. rotate inside of, which are themselves armored so as to not actually constitute a hole in the armor.

.327 has something like 15 grains of case capacity, 5.7 has 14. I very much doubt it'll cause problems.

Having a half dozen different types of robot which each use equipment that neither other robots nor humans can use, that each also need specific parts and maintenance, would be a nightmare in terms of logistics and maintenance. If they can only shoot things, need strong supply lines and lots of maintenance, and can barely do anything else that a human or humanoid robot can do, then you'd be better off with light armored vehicles. The only kind of robots that would make sense in terms of logistics and maintenance would be fielding massive numbers of general purpose robots able to do almost anything a human soldier can do (which is a lot more than just shooting at people), and the only kind of robot that fits the bill is a humanoid on a human scale.

Ive considered this too but actually all you have to do is get the firepower up so it breaches hydrostatic shock threshold (get it up to about 1000 Joules / 700 foot pounds).

Also it wouldnt exactly be 8mm, look at the actual width of the case and subtract 1mm from it (and thats even if the end of the case is only 1/2mm thick).

>>34475396

7.62mm Tokarev is also an excellent one to beef up too. Again get it up to about .30 carbine level.

>>34475385
.45 Fuck You.

It's basically just .45, but with a 9mm-sized rebated rim. Kinda like .50 Beowulf, but for pistols.
>>
>>34482554

Im thinking that you're talking about a shortened .45 case instead. Even a tiny bit of powder + primer is going to pop it out at 300-500fps. Should be pretty damn quiet with a suppressor, and still blow through a skull.

The problem is case capacity.

No no

A .45 caliber case that holds a heeled a .45 caliber projectile with rifle powder for a complete burn. Also it's rimfire because reloading is for the gentile

We do have the .40 super, which is a .45 necked down to .40 just to piss off the .40 people with enhanced performance.

7.62x45 has already been done

That looks like a fat .357 sig
>>
>>34483087
it might well be called a .40 sig except it wasnt made by sig
>>
>>34467602
Straight walled 30-06 with a rn bullet like a 9mm or tapered to 9mm
>>
>>34482592
then make a system where the parts can be easily swapped in and out and control it all with software. still no reason to have a humanoid fighting robot. humans are slow and weak. give 1 reason a robot made for killing would be human shaped
>>
>>34483207
If anything a killer robot would likely be best as a Centepede/Snake kinda thing, large of course.

It has a thin cross section to shoot, and it can store a large weapon or missile launcher in the "mouth" (or in the ass of it)

It's not speed/weight it's sectional density and velocity.

i doubt that. cheetas are much faster than snakes

It sure explains why humans in wheelchairs make better soldiers than normal people. Legs are for the weak!

reliable caseless ammo with good ballistics and small enough so a weapon using it can be easily concealed

Just call it Eargenboomer Loudensplitten

1. A longer, more powerful 10mm for carbines and light rifles. Sort of like a 9x39, but without the subsonic angle. Put another way, 30 carbine if it was 10mm and more powerful.

2. On the other end of the spectrum, I'd like to see a full power .32 pistol cartridge. Might end up being too similar to .357 Sig, though.

3. A powerful, punchy .25 pistol cartridge. Something like 7.62 Tokarev, but in .25.

4. Finally, .600 Nitro Special. All the fun of lobbing a .62 slug down range without obliterating your shoulder. More or less .600 Nitro Express cut down to ~1/3 power, and with a significantly shortened case.

The poison doesn't need to be all that fast acting. we are talking about killing within five minutes. not five seconds. read the fucking pic.
