Tracking as in... Missile or torpedo tracking? Railgun normally has unguided projectiles. Are you talking about slow traverse speed of the turret? If so, right, it definitely is a way to make it less powerful, especially in close-distance fights against maneuvrable opponents.
Reload speed is definitely a viable way to balance such guns, too. Low ammunition count, on the other hand, is intended for large-caliber guns (for example, see Warhammer's macrocannons, Nova cannon, FV4005 Stage II with its twelve 183mm rounds in total, whatever). Railguns, instead, tend to have very small projectiles that have a lot of impact and penetrating ability... Due to having a sensible energy requirement.
Very high speed, moderate damage, balanced energy requirement, slow traverse speed of the turrets. What do you think?
