*Second, the random number is added to 0.49 to convert it to a multiplier between 0.5 and 1.5. Every turret shot (which hits) will deal between 50% and 149% (with one exception) of the damage listed in the fitting window. The damage of one shot (as shown in the fitting window) is calculated by multiplying the ammunition's base damage by the turret's Damage Multiplier attribute. | *Second, the random number is added to 0.49 to convert it to a multiplier between 0.5 and 1.5.

As can be seen, the lower the random number, the easier it is to hit - because the hit chance will always be above a low random number. However, when the random number is added to 0.49 it will end up in a low damage multiplier, so the shot will deal less damage when it does hit.
