A concept that requires you to both interpret the rules literally and then ignore the rules altogether in order to work.

If you interpret them literally, it does allow for FTL communication, but not railguns

Sending already allows FTL communication.

How do we know that there isn't speed of light delay in magic?

It would be in the rules of the spell

Exactly. The duration is one round, the distance is "any distance", and the target can reply immediately. If it had lightspeed delay then the distance would be limited to 3 lightseconds.
