The density of uranium is actually 19,050 kg per cubic meter.

Yeah I did bodge the DU density, what can I say. It was late and I got it wrong. Whoops.
Anyway where did you get that railgun length from, just curious that's all. I never did work out anything about them, they just did seem a nifty idea.
Finally as i was out by a 1,000 on the density of DU, (
) you can cut the needed length of rail gun by the same amount to get the same energy from the slug. Or make them even slower but larger until you get a sensible length launcher.
