That is just what I'm suggesting, except that I'm talking 
about one more step. If you think KE, full power is best. 
For non-kinetics, extremely low power is best.

20mm full power railgun, extremely short barrel:
Raw KE damage 24d
HEAT 6d(10)
HE 2d+1[2d]
1/2D range 1,000
Ewt 24 lbs.
raw WPS 0.3 lbs.

40mm low power railgun, extremely short barrel:
Raw KE damage 24d
HEAT 12d(10)
HE 18d[4d]
1/2D range 710
Ewt 24 lbs.
raw WPS 1.2 lbs.

80mm extremely low power railgun, extremely short barrel:
Raw KE damage 24d
HEAT 120d(2)
HE 144d[6d]
1/2D range 500
Ewt 19 lbs.
raw WPS 3.8 lbs.

These days I'm using the Vehicles Expansion, for example the
armor volume rule. That changes quite a lot.
