The most common pistol caliber cartridge in the Colonial Pact, it is used in all manner of dual stage weapons with the primary item employing them being pistols and personal defense weapons. It is a caseless cylindrical electrically primed 'brick' type cartridge with the round being saboted inside a ferrous magnetic sled sabot, its propellent is relatively inert requiring a specific electrical impulse in order to ignite.

• Cartridge Dimensions - 7.5×30 mm Semi-Saboted Asynchronous Linear Projectile Cartridge
• Damage Description - Kinetic, primarily intended to defeat light to heavy body armor via a high density core which is shed on impact.
• Recoil - Light (Akin to a 9x19mm NATO round out of an Glock 17 with a standard barrel length.)
• Firing Method - Dual type munition with an electrically fired chemical propellant and a secondary linear acceleration.

A low penetration expanding round consisting of a thin denser metal semi-jacketed round a softer denser metal forged to expand and deform on impact. It is primarily intended for soft targets such as personnel that are unarmored or in softer non-rigid body armor.

• Damage Rating - Weapon Dependent

• Firing Method - Dual type munition with an electrically fired chemical propellant and a secondary rail acceleration.

A lightweight anti-material cartridge using both kinetic energy and chemical explosive to produce thermal and explosive damage to the target. Consisting of a light armor piercing core backed by a incendiary delayed fuse device which produces a thermite like effect when initiated. Its primary use is against equipment, exo-suit equipped troops, and moderate to heavily armored opponents.
