31. It has a high rate of fire ( 6 rounds per minute ) and can fire all types of 155 mm ammunition. 32. This phenomenon, known as " shoot-down, " causes fired paintballs to gradually lose range, and can also occur at high rates of fire . 33.

Prussian gunners strove for a high rate of fire , which was discouraged in the French army in the belief that it wasted ammunition. 35. Although ShKAS is best known for its high rate of fire , it did have provisioning for slower cyclic rates by lowering the gas-pressure. 36. Some weapons that operate at high rates of fire , such as the GAU-8 Avenger Gatling cannon, use plastic driving bands rather than soft metal. 37. However, propane produces heat, which ( when firing for an extended period at high rates of fire ) can cause burns if improperly handled. 38.

As it was originally designed to be operated from airplanes it had a high rate of fire of over 1, 500 rounds per minute. 40. They typically have a high rate of fire and relatively low recoil, making them ideal for engaging multiple targets in a fast paced combat situation.
