I've got my extended CP2020 ammo/gun system all worked out, and
need help converting it to SRII. Anyone got any ideas?

various combinations of
6 propellant types
3 round shapes
32 bullet types
(+18 for shotguns)
5 feed types
allow a LOT of different weapons

E mail me if you want to help.My head hurts

CHOPPER
APDS? use memory expanders! the bullet is a memory metal that
was preformed as a disc, then formed into a AP spike. it
undergoes shape change on sudden impact.
Fired from a heavy pistol, the bullet is AP as it strikes
armour, (as APDS, 1/2 ballistic armour) but is several cm into
the target before it starts shapechange back to the
disc.(expanding round, power +2)
Expensive but effective (9M pistol becomes 11M 1/2 armour?)
