Also came across this on uboat.net:

http://www.uboat.net/special/analysis.htm

It's an analysis of the attacks made by U-boats over the war and broken down into type. Here's a summary:

Torpedo only attacks were 3521, resulting in 2408 sinkings.

Torpedo & Gunfire were 209 in number, resulting in 191 sinkings.

Gunfire only attacks were 215 in number, resulting in 158 sinkings.

Thus attacks with gunfire represented about 8% of the total, if my sums are right.
