Lore:
The XM197 Anti-Materiel “Payload” Rifle was intended to be the answer against the Chinese 35mm-caliber Grenade Launcher, employed with the similar Counter-Sniper role. It fires the 25mm Grenade Machinegun rounds, that are autocannon shells fired with lower propellant and lower velocity – not enough to hit aircraft at higher-altitudes, but just enough against materiel and infantry. Accurized, with variable length of barrels, it can send shells at relatively flat trajectories, to arc over objects, or something in between. Affectionately known as “Payload Rifle”, for it’s capacity to fire standard 25mm autocannon round that has different types of shells for different occasions.
Built from the Red Raptor “Intervention”, chambered from 50-MG and then into 25mm Grenades, it uses a short-recoil operation with a small annular bolt that keeps the bolt-travel short.
