Ammo isn't as much of an issue as it is for normal weapons, and neither is power.Hypervelocity weapons degrade barrels very fast, but the barrels are also extremely heavy, generates lots of heat, and each is needing its own coil, just better off firing larger rounds usually.
And yes, its a coilgun minigun. Four? Tempted to do four. Though that'd give it a lower RoF...Five maybe?
Maybe an open shaft carbine is better or very short barrels.
Think about what you'd actually want the weapon to do.
