Sometimes, there's no tactical reason to conserve ammo or plenty of tactical reasons NOT to.
You're shooting at a large swarm of drones, you have nothing to lose by opening fire before optimum range.
You have a coilgun launch mechanism for your missiles so the muzzle velocity isn't the whole picture.
You are desperate and praying for the golden BB because if the enemy gets into effective range you are royally screwed.
You want to throw out a wall of violence to force the enemy to maneuver, either to waste dV or to make it easier for you to maneuver into (or out of) optimum range of the big guns.
Your guns have half a million rounds EACH and there's no reason to not tape down the trigger through the entire engagement.
These are just a few examples.
