If the target ammo of this new round (if it were electronic) had a lead 40gr bullet with a muzzle velocity of 1080fps, it would duplicate the current .22LR target ballistics.
The issue then for rule committees would be the physical advantages of the rifle or pistol that has an electronic fire mechanism. Currently it doesn’t seem to have rules on trigger pull weights, scope magnification in many cases, or many mechanical improvements like compensators, tuners, ballistic reticles and the like.
Even so, non competition shooters and hunters would still be a large enough market.
