Versus bombers your hit ratio should be about twice or thrice as high as against fighters. It's also easier to get higher hit ratio with nose mounted guns as compared to wing ones for obvious reason.

It also depends on your tactics - with planes like a 190 that got plenty of ammo you'll probably tend to take lower probability high deflection/long range shots, frightening shooting etc., which will all result in lowering your hit rate, while in a plane like Yak you'll want your every bullet to count so you'll probably tend to only shoot when you'll be nearly sure of hitting.

In my best online years I've kept my hitratio versus fighters about 10% and 15% for wing and for nose equipped guns respectively, and ~40% versus bombers. You really need an excellent connection and game running perfectly smooth for such numbers. And, needless to say, you must purpousefully aim for high hit ratio. Which is sometimes impossible - like when trying to fend an enemy of your buddy tail etc...
