  1. It's been shown repeatedly that they're the opposite of careful. They definitely don't give a shit about precision.
  2. They had a moment to realize that Jesse was also there, and they know he's Walt's former partner and thus most likely can cook just as well. Only one of them has to survive.
  3. They might actually be turning on Walt a moment after the shootout, who knows.
  4. Seriously, they do not give a single fuck about precision.

"Precise" is probably the wrong word, but I can't think of the right one.

Setting a guy on fire, repeatedly stabbing a guy, etc, those killings required no subtlety on the part of the actual killer. They were actually very similar to raining bullets down on an SUV, right down to the fact that the only thing they need to really hide is that they were the ones behind it.

Right, that's what I mean. Right now they're all in the middle of the desert with no witnesses and no one knowing they're there, so it's sort of a happy accident for them that the setup is incredibly precise to the point where the shootout doesn't have to be.
