Pretty certain the same happens on the other side of the fence as DeWilde stocks increased. Give us the choice, those that want to fly historical loadouts can, those who don't won't. This entire thread smacks too much of "I got shot down, and I don't like it" forcing others to play by your own desires.

Ammo loads don't help that much, you still have to put rounds in critical locations, and fly well enough to get your guns to bear. If you stay all day in front of someone else, they'll drop you whether they are loaded with ball/AP/HE/or incendiaries...

concur.
