Average damage for a 0.01 KT mininuke is 2800 burn ex rad sur, divided by distance, and 4200 divided by 3 x distance. The UGL 40mmPLB has a half damage range of 75 and a max range of 450. The previously-mentioned EMGL 40mmG has a half-damage range of 150.

At a range of 75, the 0.01 KT mininuke will do around 56 points. At a range of 150 that drops to 28 points.

Both have an RoF of 3, in case you care.
