I don´t think it´s "grossly over modeled" in game. In my opinion it´s a bit undermodelled.

There is a little issue, yes. But I don't think it's just 50 rounds. In which plane? I've counted 65 in the 109s, but I think it's just 50 in the FWs. And there it should be more maybe. I know just the exact max load for the MG FF since A-5 which is 90 and not 60.
The MK 108 issue is just that the HE round does very little damage while the MG round is the killer it's supposed to be. Usually I shoot off the first bullet of the first 2 MKs in the 262 and have a mix of 2 MG and 2 HE then everytime I shoot and it does pretty well then. If I don't some of the hits I achieve do very little damage which accounts to the HE rounds.
A simple belting with MG only would fix this issue easily.
