I haven't tried this yet but the deck gun tone down seems really good to me. Many mods increase the deck gun damage, like UHS 1.7 (which I really like otherwise), and so does the Magnum Opus (UHS is included I guess) not to mention Critical hits 1.2.
I've been using my own little deck gun mod which gives more like stock values (well it gives bit more variation to the damage, but the overall value is the same), it also reduces the auto stabilization (which is not realistic!). And like you said, TDW's FX-mod adds fire damage so little tuning is in place. The deck gun should be just for shooting down unarmed little merchants, but sometimes it seems that you really don't need torpedoes at all.
