Nah. The only real reason to watch that movie was Leonor Valera (earlier roles include Ballroom Beauty in The Man in the Iron Mask) with that brass hair-device. |

M406 projectile weight is 170 grams (2623 grains). The German equivalent of the M433 (DM12), projectile weight is 220 g (3395 gr). Don't have any weights on the HV loads, but they're probably more than 220 g, possibly closer to 300 g.
Haven't seen an F2000 yet, but I believe there was an OICW (at least something that was supposed to be an OICW) in Die Another Day. Put to use by a North Korean, no less. Gotta love those Bond flicks. |

That'd make the muzzle energy on M203 and M79 478J/353ft-lbs. 27 00-buckshot pellets only weigh around 110 grams, though, so I wonder what that'd do to the muzzle velocity... But if a 10G magnum can fire 18 such pellets at 1100fps (4047J/2985ft-lbs), I think you'd better stick with the Roadblocker. Assuming 280g for the HV grenades, that'd make the muzzle energy on the Mk19 8064J/5948ft-lbs, almost twice that of 10G loadings. But that shouldn't be too hard to handle, recoil-wise, for a troll, right?
Personally, any female that is not disfigured, obese or sickly thin does just about everything for me. I've always thought men shouldn't be so picky, considering how horribly ugly we are. |

Bump it up quite a bit. It's really proving difficult to find any info on the M576. It's obviously a special load, being a bunch of pellets in a sabot. The sabotted projectile must be quite a bit smaller than the average grenade, which leaves some guess work involved for what happens to the space behind the projectile. Standard LV grenades work on the high/low pressure system. This one may not. I don't know. In any case, I would say that velocity is at least doubled. Which still isn't that great.
Me too, at this point.
Hell, put a stock and a pistol grip on a MK19 and a Troll probably wouldn't have many problems. Looking at recoil @ 53 fpe @ 6 fps. |

Why didn't I think of that... It sure puts the Ares Thunderer to shame. Actually, even better to go with an OCSW. They are probably as easy to get a hold of by the 2060s, and the ballistics seem better for this use: 25mm 132g(/0.291lbs/2037gr) projectile at 425mps/1393fps for 11900J/8800ft-lbs. Slightly higher recoil, but I think that's well worth it. For humans, better go with just the Payload Rifle. |
