I was just messing around with making minor modifications to the stock 3 mm 200 kw railgun and I found that adjust the reload time had no impact on muzzle velocity and minimal impact on power draw until some pretty extreme power was applied.
If the rate of fire is increasing and the power draw to fire the projectiles is being held constant then the kinetic energy (and thus muzzle velocity) of the projectiles should be dropping as there is less firing energy per projectile.
