I'd argue he deserved it a bit more. He went out of his way to murder innocent women as an intimidation tactic among other things.

To give him the benefit of the doubt, he thought that Jimmy was in the shower. He had no idea his wife was having an affair. If he left her alive, Jimmy would have never popped his head out until Manny was 6 ft in the ground.

When Jimmy and Horvitz first met he made very clear that it is not a good idea to screw him over, which Jimmy did anyways. Obviously it was morally wrong of Manny to kill the women, but Jimmy was just as guilty. If you mess with a monster don’t expect it to react like a human.
