Some characters ran out of luck during this session and had to manage without.

Mythras Fatigue rules and bleed effect covers this very neatly.

Also the bigger rounds need not have a lot more damage but better range brackets and amour penetrating. 

Also the Drop Foe effect is there for close calls.

It's not too bad, although I'm not all that found of the big adds some rifles get. It ends up making them far more deadly than they are in real life. The more I look at existing stats the more I'm tempted to try and find some formulaic approach. 

I am not sure that a minimum of 6 is to bad. At best its only a mayor wound, a average roll will cause a serious wound which will destroy a limb. Which also seems fair for a 50cal sniper rifle.  

I see grazes as a near miss which the  pin down combat effect covers.

However I do like what you are doing.

I spent a lot of time in the past doing similar stuff but now I just let the Role play take center stage and let the players worry about big damage weapons hitting them as well. 

Try looking at Mythras / RQ6 rules and the RQ6 Firearms PDF

I think most of your issues have covered in there.

Guns ignore some armour. There are combat effects like  Drop Foe, Impale, Bleed, Pin down all these help make guns effective while not over killers.

My son (as avid an RPG'er as I) just loves him some Ancient World Historical stuff.  I've pointed him at this...

 

I hope he enjoys it

Lots of luck used to gain divine help as well as in the very short combat and its aftermath. 

A good session to GM.
