Equally though, he could have decided to press his attack because you stopped
firing at him. I don't see enough evidence to support rewriting the section
text, especially since these shooting encounters are more stringently worded
elsewhere. I recommend that we just use an appropriately worded footnote. The
ammo restriction text I suggested earlier should be added to the paragraph text
though.
"Pick a number from the Random Number Table and add to it your current Shooting
and Perception skill totals. For every bullet you decide to fire (minimum: one
round; maximum: eight rounds), add an additional point to your total (but be
sure to erase them from your Ammo Pouch)."

But the alternative section, where you fail, implies that he kicks the gun
out of your hand while you're still trying to get shots off, so there's some
chance of failure beyond your control.

Just so we're all on the same page, in this section Cal is firing
blindly over his shoulder. He doesn't have a perfect way of knowing
when he's hit his target. It seems reasonable to me that he might fire
four rounds, for example, hoping that is enough to hit the attacker.
I'm OK however with leaving this as a footnote.
