I won't pretend to fully understand it, but from what I gather the dropped shots are caused by an attempt at frame rate independent firing. This code is apparently not perfectly functional in 1.1.0.4 (although it has been fixed in the next release by all accounts). The flaw/bug/idiosyncrasy is exacerbated by variations in your frame rate. By capping your frame rate you should be able to keep it constant, thereby avoiding the bug and reducing your drop rate.
My story is similar to Vanq's.
[SELECT ALL] Code:
/maxfps 0 -> 24% dropped
/maxfps 50 -> 0% droppedYou just need to play around to find your magic number, as it varies for most people.
