Secondly, somewhat related, due to using reload before wildfire there is quite a big time gap between the buffs used pre pull and the wildfire window, which causes the buffs to fall off before WF ends and also desyncs their CDs for further WFs. Is it not beneficial to use WF earlier and am i supposed to hold HE (and B4B) till WF comes off CD or use it straight away?
Deciding between 2-ammo and 5-ammo depends on the encounter and whether or not Reload gets misaligned from your other cooldowns (i.e. Reassemble) later in the fight. In general, use 2 ammo opener since that means easier buff alignment. However 5 ammo opener is good for when you discover that you have to hold CDs because of phase changes/burst DPS checks. I use 2 ammo for A5S/A6S and 5 ammo for A7S/A8S.

HE/B4B is every 90s; Wildfire is every 90s. As long as you do Hot Shot/Lead Shot every 30s, you should be aligned. Every 90s, it will involve (HE/B4B) > Hot Shot > Lead Shot > (Wildfire just coming off CD) Split Shot > Wildfire.
