You are close, but the bradley 30mm cannon is a single barrel cannon with a much slower rate of fire of around 100-300 rounds per minute. The 30mm gatling gun is a 6 barrel revolving electro cannon; what the old vulcan antiaircraft systems used to use. The ac-10 thunderbolt tank killer is built around a 21 foot version of this weapon. They fire at a selectable rate of 1000 or 3000 rounds per minute.

"For trials the M2 Bradley has already been fitted with a 35mm Bushmaster III automatic cannon, and a 50mm version of the same gun (same cartridge case). 40-57mm automatic cannon are becoming very popular as projects; because they give you the ability not only to spew out infantry destroy HE rounds, but also to destroy older tanks and any IFV or APC at extended ranges. Telescopic cased ammunition, with the shell buried inside of the cartridge case, make that sort of cannon a lot more practical then it once was. The result is fatter ammunition, but its also much shorter, which lets you build a shorter bolt and chamber and thus a generally much more compact gun."

yes and the gatlins used on the side of the c-130 gunship fire at a rate of 6000 rpm, 3 guns on each side, imagine 18000 rpm of ammo coming at your ass...!!
