It was errata'd later on, to deal 1d10+9 damage instead of 2d10+5, and have a rate of fire of S/3/- instead of S/2/4 if I recall correctly, meaning the newer versions generally did less damage and at a slower rate of fire.This was in part done because Bolters were more powerful than Plasma Guns even for killing heavily armored troops, especially if you loaded them with Kraken or Vengeance bolts. Bolters are still some of the most useful weapons in the game even with the nerf, as they're still very powerful and highly versatile.

The bolt is actually closer to the 20mm grenade used on the XM29 OICW or the K11 DAW than a full sized 20mm cannon shell. Same for the heavy bolters bolt. It's closer to the 25mm grenades on the XM25 than the Bushmasters 25mm chaingun ammo. And just to be nitpicky, you can only lock and load open bolt weapons or weapons that need to lock back the bolt before loading a new magazine.

Hello Arch. Unlike most players, I both did the numbers, AND was an Enlisted Weapons Instructor in the United States Marine Corps. A 0.75 calibur round is 19.01mm, so your generalization of it being a 20mm grenade launcher is fairly accurate. The Bolt fired is definitely projected out of the barrel of the weapon by an explosive charge like gunpowder. And once free of the weapon, the gyro-jet rockets built into the base of the round fire up and thrust it even faster to it's target. This explains the relatively short range of a Space Marine's weapons fire on the tabletop, since the 'powder' charge is only large enough to get the round out of the weapon, and the gyro-jet rockets have only enough fuel for a relatively short duration flight. Plus the mass of the round is fairly hefty, and thus once the explosive charge and rocket fuel are expended, air resistance would sharply limit it's range. Once the round reaches it's target, it's adamantium tip enables it to penetrate almost any kind of armor, for the most part, and a delayed action fuse causes the enclosed explosive charge to fire, shredding the round inside it's target, doing the maximum possible damage to it. A similar weapon is already available. The NEOPUP PAW 20mm Rifle. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qqd2p7NmgNjSpsY.html speaking, Frank-ly

I think a bolter shell would be more in line with a 12 gauge slug, which is a .73 round. In fact, we have 12 gauge grenade rounds. And rocket propelled 13mm rounds. You know, I could probably build a functional bolter gun out of extant technology if I had the various explosive and destructive device licenses.

Those things weighs a fair amount, you could use it as a blunt weapon.

The bolter reminds me of a a3 grease gun, they have that slow heavy 45 caliber slugging along at around 350 rounds a minute Dakka Dakka Dakka beautiful in its simplicity and brutality!

It's essentially a bigger, fully automatic version of the Gyrojet firearms of the past. I also wonder if it has a bolt hold-open device.

A heavy bolter is more of a 20mm, and you make it sound as if the bolt detonation is like a grenade. It's more like a bursting shell, which is what it is. Still makes no goddamn sense that this only equates to a S4 no AP weapon on the table though..

And the fact that there's nothing sexy about it just makes your love of it even more true

5:30 ehhh not really .75 caliber isn't really as big as people think. 12 gauge shotgun fires .684 caliber shells. and that's just a shotgun. HE rounds are pretty awesome but they dont have anywhere near the impact of a grenade round. High Explosive rounds are usually made to explode, with the force of the explosion killing or wounding the enemy. however the exsplosion will almost always be pretty self contained. where a grenade either from a launcher or thrown is meant to hit many targets with similar or greater force. Its actually like 18mm round but yeah that is overkill How Bolt rounds have AP, HE, and Shrapnel. This is fucking magic, heavy AP with HE is more detrimental than anything, as you will often (should) get moments where your Bolt round fly's through a person and dosnt have anywhere near the effect especially given the caliber your more than likely going to experience over penetration more often than anything else without the AP with it your likely to put a clean bolt round sized hole in your enemy but they are likely going to keep fighting since unless you hit something vital they likely wont even notice it do to how fast it happened. it really should just be HE and it would be very effective HE rounds typically are, but it carries the risk of your ammunition getting hit and cooking off to much more detrimental effects you than normal ammo. dont get me started on the Gyro jet 2nd stage of the weapon. severe heating from the barrel would warp the bullets on the exiting of the barrel combined with the gyro jet would reduce your accuracy stupidly. *The space marines do have special bolt rounds for stalker bolters that dont have the Gyro jet and they would work just fine.* but the standard round would not function in reality. .75 caliber would not rip off someone's arm you can look up a video of people firing .90 caliber rifles. You would not have to miniaturize the bolter the barrel and mechanisms wouldn't be that large. if anything you would have to scale the holding parts and grip for the marine but even than not by that much. honestly a human variant of a bolter just add a stock to it and if you really feel the need give the man a bit more of padding where his stock is going to go and after some training he wont notice the kick nearly as much. as that area of his body would increase in density do to the consistent hits to it. as a result the human body will try to compensate for the consistent force by increasing the density of that section of his body *look up density training* its really fascinating and their are people who use steal poles as punching bag's from the training. As always its Science Fantasy so at the end of the day. Its designed to be cool and it does achieve that if nothing else, I just wish more research on guns was done before they came up with this weapon. As always great video arch looking forward to the next one.

Propably not for the best to compare current theory to bolters of the 40th millennium, as their resources and progress will be greater as a given.

@irontemplar6222

5 жыл бұрын

@@josephellis8501 what are you talking about. The gyrojet guns IRL had the issue of at short range it wouldn't be leathal speed. The problem is the Bolt round is a combination of a bullet and a gyrojet round. From rapid heating of a barrel bullets tend to warp in their chambers because of the intense heat, however with normal bullets this does that effect accuracy that much since their method of propulsion only happens once. It does reduce the accuracy of the bullet but not enough for anyone to care. But with the two stage system of a bolter round that warped bullet might shoot out at a 90 degree angle once it fires because the warping will move the location of the interior rocket in any direction that the bullet happens to warp your accuracy goes to shit after just a few shots due to the heat. And before anyone brings up "oh they might have advanced X" 1. I checked they said they just used steel for this boltgun and dueteariam for some reason. But 2. Because the way high explosive rounds work you need the metal to be made at a very specific thickness to make the explosive actully useful too thick while you might solve the warping problem the bolt on impact will destroy itself you wont get any boom if any at all depending on how thick you make it or if you use the wrong material. Too thin and it exsplode outward to much and you wont get any penetration out if it and if they are wearing good armor your bolt rounds will need to repeatedly hit them to strip the armor. Now the thickness and material used matters in the bolt round rocket nozzle will shift ever so slightly if the barrel is cold when firing it because the kinetic impact of being launched will shift it ever so slightly, over later when the barrel is heated which will shift it significantly to the point it might fly of in a 90 degree direction once the rocket kicks on. And all of this is assuming your firing this on earth in ideal temperatures and no wind the second you start applying these things the aim gets even worse to the point where their is a chance a very very small chance that your own bullet might fly back 180 degrees and hitting yourself with it.

Usually between 3 and 8 mags depending on mission. Space Marines and their doctrine are not designed for protracted engagements but instead lightning fast hits at vital targets to collapse enemy command and fighting ability. Large scale warfare is the IG's thing and despite how it is often portrayed Astartes usually fight as part of a larger Imperial force that takes the brunt of the fighting while the Marines act as surgical kill machines. Even when a chapter goes it alone it's with thousands of support personnel in the form of serfs and fleet assets. This paired with their superhuman abilities means that combat missions are short and brutal and resolve long before logistics become a major factor barring extreme circumstances.

The bolt gun, because death was not a suggestion but a direct order.

Walk softly and carry a big gun

One of the more terrifying aspects of the bolt round would be the effect of hydrostaic pressure from the explosion in a body would cause micro-tears to the surrounding tissue and internal bleeding. Had some time on my hands and thinking about bolters. Skipping the detonator charge in the round and use the heat and flame as the ignition source for the HE might be best, it would only work on medium to hard impact. Does limit the range, but simplifies manufacturing, reduces fail rate for explosion, and potentially gets a better spread pattern for shrapnel.
