Damage calculations

Is it possible to accurately predict the outcome of battles involving small stacks of missile ships ? It seems to me that the random element caused by missile/torpedo accuracy can massively influence the outcome when overall missile numbers are small (I'm talking about 20 missiles on a stack).

I searched rgcs for details and found some comments on the damage calculation (search for "Spagnoli Cawley Damage Calculations"), but then when I implement it I get a wide variation in damage per salvo... 72 to 132 points, for example.
