Save weapon data before moving off. Now open your modified APC in the units tab, find the cannon (probably slot 1) and change its ID to the slot number you used to paste the copied data into. Change ammo to suit. Save OOB and exit Mobhack. Job done (though you should run the points calculator on the resulting OOB).
May I subsequently distribute a scenario with modified APC as described above without distributing the modified OOB?

That is what I had thought. So, in designing a scenario, I am left with two alternatives use the USA 25mm M242 with sabot values or load the Bushmaster 30mm and give it sabot ammo.

Using these two options, I can publish a scenario without distributing a modified OOB.
