If so, I'd love to see what you've come up with. As a second choice, I'd take a tutorial on Mr. Cole's spreadsheet. I've not been able to make it go.

<shrug> Take a .50 BMG and add a stock and some hand-grips. None of those rounds are all that much less powerful than the .50. You're going to end up with weights over 30 or 40 lbs and Min ST of at least 20. Not really a "rifle" for humans.

If you enant "self-loading" or "semi-automatic" rather than _full_ automatic you've just got an adaptation of the .50 Barrett which already is semi-automatic.
