Cloaked scouts with shotguns, res, and flux grenades. You have AV and AI taken care of.
cloaked scouts aren't a brilliant counter to heavys, all suits have the same turn speed and the HMG does good work in cqc. your best bet for removing heavys is a medium long range weapon that can get outside the HMG's effective range and still put good dps on target.

or a rail rifle depending on the heavy type (SCr for dari/mini, RR for Gal/Amarr)

and thus the question is raised... which heavy dropsuits are the most frequently used at the proto level?
heavy's ehp is the only gimmick it has. heavy weapons are too well balanced(yes I'm implying that they are nerf) to be considered and advantage. proto flat out has more ehp than than the other tiers so proto is preferable.
other suits have more versatile gimmicks that can be used more effectively on lower tier models.

current meta favors armor fits due to rep tools, triage hives, and the higher ehp offered by plates. the SCr while not a bad weapon will put you at a disadvantage on the competitive scene due to it's inherent damage debuff against armor. that is really only at the top tiers of play, pub and fw you wont be at a noticeable disadvantage.
I'm not sure about minmatar heavys but caldari heavys are widly regarded as the worst of the heavys so there is that as well.
