.....How in the world is that going to make the armor piercing rounds more powerful? Why should they not have had the same destructive force without the benefit of this special reloading. I think one has to remember preps are only really needed for very powerful special abilities, you don't need a special ritual to shoot a gun, you just do. Hence the benefit of guns and such in the first place.Edit: So with Keezheekoni and seemingly now Kholodny gone, I could probably just say they were captured and hence ho the Empire will learn about the omnicron.

I think you're desperately trying to compare and contrast the inherent weaknesses of ranged weapons over melee weapons. I was under the impression they were more or less equal. 

Also, what Sch said is correct, for not all rounds perform equally against all substances. DU rounds would deliver excellent results against armored targets, but would fall short when striking unarmored targets. On the contrast, hollow-point ammunition (which devastates unarmored targets) is ideal for wiping out enemy's unprotected with ballistic armor, but they deliver lackluster results when used against foes wearing body armor.

Anyway, I'm going to post in Necropili (or whatever it is called) pretty soon (at least at the end of the night or so).
