I think you need to go back and reread the posts showing actual combat reload times and problems firing in any kind of a sea at all. The maximum rate of fire is only ever obtained under ideal conditions, and there's no such thing as as an ideal condition except when the gun is being tested at the range. The "bucket brigade" has been discussed several times in this very thread, and it is definitely slower than direct access of the ready-use ammo. Use whatever times suit you, but don't say that combat times of 4 seconds are realistic, because they aren't.
