Could we talk about changing those skills? I have the feeling they are either too expensive or they don't give enough additional ammo. In some cases they don't even give you one additional magazine but still cost almost 1mil SP for level 5.
So, can we either make them cheaper or make them give us more ammo?

That is why I am proposing to either give more ammo OR COST LESS SP.
Right now why would I want to spend 1mil SP to get 375 more shots for a HMG? (that is 88% of a magazine)
At level 5 they should either give you 2 full magazines or the skill should get its multiplier reduced. Currently 375 HMG shots cost you as much SP as proto uplinks.

Many will say no, but that doesn't mean the skill is necessarily too SP expensive. Levels 1-3 are meant to be easy to get, level 4 is if you're really wanting to invest in that skill. Level 5 is 50% of the total SP investment for the entire skill, but only 20% of the benefit, and is meant to be for late optimization or not even at all because of the high cost. Besides you can't really go off of the whole "x magazines" concept since technically the Plasma Cannon gets 5 additional full magazines with maxed out skills 
Currently there are many skills that are not really worth it. But right now we are talking about the ammoe skill only.
So, make it worth it! Either way. I don't see why it shouldn't be worth its SP.
also, PLC was %-based before, then they realised it was useless and changed it. I don't see why they shouldn't do it for the rest of the weapons.

Level 4 HMG = 300 shots =~450k SP ... not worth it
Level CR = 81 shots ... not worth it
I'm sorry but I don't see it. And I don't see why anyone would try to defend a skill being that expensive while also being useless.
Skilling something to 5 should be worth it, always, for everything.
