Gauss weapons

Oerjan suggests a ceramic coating for a gauss flechette. Seems like a
wise
idea - easier penetration through the atmosphere I'd imagine. 

How about some sort of "molecularly aligned" metal or something like
synthetic diamond (maybe a diamond tip)? I dunno, just crazy talk. 

As for spinning the round, couldn't you just have the field produced as
the
round was accelerated be a spiral and thus induce a spiral motion in the
round? It might be creeping elegance, solution wise, but it should be
possible. 

What about a grav railgun (these are what I assume KV ground troops
use!)?
Use the same grav control you use to give you intertial dampers to spin
a
projectile and launch it. (That's why KV weapons are big and bulky -
pretty
much too heavy for most humans' strength level - or so goes part of the
PSB).  

Just some other thoughts.
