Bf 109G 20 mm ammo capacity

Some sources say that the maximum ammo capacity of the central 20 mm gun of the Bf 109G was 250 rounds. However, some Finnish references state that due to feed problems like broken belts, only 130-150 round belts were used. Is there anything on this in German sources? If the same problem was noted in Germany too, why wasn't it solved in a way to exploit full capacity?
