What if the designs for the 10 minute Railgun were used to create a railgun in a larger size? If a larger energy output was used, would the projectile fire at a faster rate, and possibly be used as a potent weapon?

Don't try to make one if you are unsure of
what will happen.

It shoots the moving part like a bullet,
and can kill people.
