How would you do it with a bigger squad?
10 Flash gitz shooting 20 bullets would take some time. Or even the old Mutant fire arms from the old Lost and the damnd codex.
Even worse, what if a 50man IG blob shoots rapid fire with FRFSRF order and a nurgle sorcerer cast their get hot spell on them?
There is no clear rule, but I think fast rolling is the way to go.

End result is basically same if you just use random allocation for the wounds caused by Gets Hot! with the caveat that no model may get more wounds allocated than it has fired shots. Bring some non-D6 dice with you to make random allocation go faster. Note: you can do fast rolling with random allocation too:

There is no clear rule as to how to roll the dice but GW does suggest how to do it in the brb.
