Please understand that Wings of Glory was designed not to need dice. This is a touchy subject for some (read: ME, at least), and not to be considered for any purpose in Wings of War/Glory.
However, if you want to use ammo limits, there are a few posts on the Forum that give accurate ammo loads on planes, and coupled with rates of fire for specific weapons, have figured out how many "shots" a given plane would have. Dice are a randomization factor that messes up things that should be hard and fast. Rookie gunners might tend to hold the trigger a bit long, or spray bullets, but good, or even veteran, gunners would have the discipline to conserve ammo. The damage cards already have the hit/miss randomization built in, AFAIK. Adding another randomization would be cruel.
Please consider in any game with ammo limits, using the "If you measure a shot, you have shot" rule. Rookies will pay dearly for this (Especially if they are actually out of range).
