How to Stat Ghost in the Shell Style Hypervelocity Ammunition

Been away for vacation and am back - will look into what goes into a Hypervelocity 9mm round in order to get a given damage value based upon:

a) a given bullet mass
b) a given velocity range

Will likely do this sometime tomorrow...

but just to give you an idea...

9mm 124 grain bullet with a velocity of 1140 feet per second - results in a GURPS 4e damage rating of 2d6+1 based on the spreadsheet.

Were we to get its muzzle velocity to 3240 feet per second, its damage would be 7d+1. At those speeds, you may see its accuracy improve a little over that of ordinary bullet rounds.

Real world things maybe Gurps 4e stat ACC, no. 4e ACC is almost totally determined in 4e by gun format (pistol/rifle/etc). In 3e yes ACC was derived from range in 3e.
