Pergite, do you have hard data about old and new CG ammo?
This is the information I am sitting on, but its already posted by Saab Bofors Dynamics themselves:

There you have all the data of the latest ammunition types in .pdf as well as some commercials.


Range totally depends on the target, its speed, your sight system and what ammuntion you are using. With HEAT you can hit a moving (<50km/h) target at ranges of up to 150m. If its stationary and huge increase the range up to almost 400m. HE can be uses up to 700m and Smoke up to 1000m. This however is with old sights and ammuniton. The new rocket assisted HEAT rounds should have the capability to reach targets at around 700m.
