 Galactic Horizon 7.7x30mm is a smaller yet hard-hitting caliber of ammunition designed and manufactured by [[corp:galactic_horizon]] beginning in [[timeline:ye_41]] for heavier sidearms and more compact rifles, available in both a supersonic and sub-sonic variant. Galactic Horizon 7.7x30mm is a smaller yet hard-hitting caliber of ammunition designed and manufactured by [[corp:galactic_horizon]] beginning in [[timeline:ye_41]] for heavier sidearms and more compact rifles, available in both a supersonic and sub-sonic variant.
  
-It can be easily considered the older "magnum" sibling of the company's eventual [[corp:galactic_horizon:7.7x15mm]] cartridge, with a nickel-plated brass casing and a solid block of premium-quality, high-velocity propellant. The supersonic variant uses a penetrating steel core beneath an anodized and [[WP>Teflon]]-coated [[materials:durandium]]. The subsonic variant is very similar though uses different, heavier metals to maintain stopping power without breaking the sound barrier, with an anodized and [[WP>Teflon]]-coated [[materials:skusten]] shell in place of the [[materials:durandium]] one and a [[materials:nerimium]] penetrator rather than solid steel. There is additionally a rarer self-defence variant of both types with a frangible nose to maximize the transfer of energy as well as a scored metal jacket to create a more vicious wound-channel via rapid expansion and minimize over-penetration compared to the more traditional design.+It can be easily considered the older "magnum" sibling of the company's eventual [[corp:galactic_horizon:7.7x15mm]] cartridge, with a nickel-plated brass casing and a solid block of premium-quality, high-velocity propellant.

 Funnily enough the slower, subsonic variant's [[materials:skusten]] outer shell makes it work exceptionally well with electromagnetic acceleration technologies, the frangible-nosed variant will travel just as far and be just as accurate though will suffer more shallow penetrative qualities than its more traditional counterpart. Funnily enough the slower, subsonic variant's [[materials:skusten]] outer shell makes it work exceptionally well with electromagnetic acceleration technologies, the frangible-nosed variant will travel just as far and be just as accurate though will suffer more shallow penetrative qualities than its more traditional counterpart.
