you will see that its not 13*0.95 but rather - 0.95 +0.95^2 + 0.95^3 +0.95^4 and so on...

I stand corrected

There's a check done for each of the 1/6th bullets that are aimed at the target (this means that ALL of them are checked with your CtH) and there's a check for the 1/6th that are not aimed - until one of them misses... So if a gun fires n bullets per burst, the average number of bullets that hit the target will be:
 
(n/6)*CtH + ∑CtH^i where the sum is for i = 1 to n/6
 
But in Atom's post on NMA I found something curios:

When I changed ToHit to constant 100%, the primary target was hit by 334, and the two at it's sides for 333.

No bullets were wasted. So the question is how does the game round numbers?

[Attero]

down ... but i think i know how the no missing bullet is achived...
take 1/3 for left and 1/3 for right
and rest for mid line
divide it by two, make that hit the primary target
make the rest travel the mid line.

[Iceforce]

So the average for Avenger in the mid line is 12,38 (14 max).

Or, to all intents and purposes "about 1/3rd"

[Atom]

You guys worry too much about that.

Well it's in my nature
