A reinforcement-or skeletal ceramic lattice  material is formed by forming tubes or layers of the reinforcement material throughout a melt of a bulk-solidifying amorphous metal and solidifying the mixture at a sufficiently high rate that the solid metal matrix is amorphous. Intermixing the seramioc is typically accomplished either by melting the metal and mixing the pieces of reinforcement material into the melt, or by providing a skeleton or sheet of the reinforcement material and infiltration of the molten amorphous metal into the mass. The metal preferably has a composition of about that of a eutectic composition, and most preferably has a composition, in atomic percent, of from about 45 to about 67 percent total. An example of this  zirconium plus titanium, from about 10 to about 35 percent beryllium, and from about 10 to about 38 percent total of copper plus nickel using either carbon or silicon or aluminum as a binder.

The skeleton is a specialized nano-structure application.

Some expected applications for the class materials are as electro-magnetic, thermal, or KINETIC superconductors.

1. 115 grains = 7.45188 g
2. 80% falloff in velocity at the given bullet aerodynamic coeff. should be 1500 METERS, not FEET.
3. Your results should be about 2400 joules @ 800 m/s or 1770 footpounds @1500 meters.
4. If you use an 8.5 gram bullet as you specify
-4250 joules @ 1000 m/s or 3129 footpounds strike after 100 meters with a barrel pressure calculated in the 70,000+ N/cm^2 range or well in excess of 100,000+ PSI.
-at 80% falloff in velocity that is 2720 joules or 2002 footpounds strike @ 1500 meters.

What kind of barrel or combustion chamber material are you going to use that can take that kind of pressure at 10 cycles per second?

8.5 grams is approximately 131 grains. Bullet is a pointed [as in sharp-nose] boattail [rearmass concentrated] with a fairly sharp ogive to reduce drag.  I'm confident, Rocky. 20% velocity falloff at 1500 meters is based on this data;

Ogive radius 1.5
Sectional density >.2610-.2630<
Form factor 1.10
Bal coeff 0.239-0.240
