The result doesn't change much
To compare the rounds
one 20mm projectile weighs 129 gm and has an HE/I content of 8.8% giving 11 gms of explosive per round
one 0.5 mm projectile weighs 43 gm and has an HE/I conent of 2% giving 0.86 gms of explosive per round
Clearly this is a huge advantage to the 20mm.
Applying this to the percentage chance of a hit as you posted at 10% which was the least favourable result for the Panther
For 10% probability of a strike per projectile:
Out of 47 attempts the F9F has a 96% probability of 2 or more rounds hitting.
Out of 125 attempts, the F-86 will have 7 rounds hitting (97%).
The Panther has 2 x 11 gms of explosive on the target = 22 Gms
The F86 has 7 x 0.86 gms of explosive on the target = 6.02 gms
Basically this is still a 366% advantage to the Panther.
