And second, have you considered using the choke point for melee combat? The knife isn't as powerful as a shotgun, no, but if you're fast, you can do some damage as the enemies try to come in the door. And there is always the various wrestling maneuvers that Leon does.
Yes, I've been going for mostly head shots. And yes, I try and use the knife whenever I get the chance. Problem here is that I only have pistol ammo. I will some times be able to pick up a few TMP rounds, but it's hit or miss. I few 4 shots with the rifle. So I really only have the pistol to use. I have the Red9 with some upgrades, but it still takes a few head shots to kill these guys. Knifing them at the choke point isn't easy depending on the type of enemy. They usually come 2 or 3 at a time. The guys that swing the mace thing are really hard to knife because they have long range. If I try and concentrate on knifing them I'll leave myself open to attack from other enemies. Also, at some point those dudes with the shields come busting into the room and you can't really knife them.

Like Ack said, shoot the heads and knees, this will allow you to use the diferent melee attacks that leon can do, and when the enemies are on the floor use the knife is a great way to keep ammo. If you end up backtracking buy more power to your guns, keep in mind that each time you upgrade the ammo capacity it will fill the ammo on the weapon.
If you feel risky and decide to stay in the open shoot the snipers first and then deal with the guys with shields.
The enemies respawn, that's what I'm counting on. I'm hoping they'll drop ammo. If I can backtrack to the merchant, hopefully any enemies I kill along the way will get me enough ammo.
Good to know that upgrading the clip capacity will fill the ammo, I didn't know that. I might have all the available upgrades though. And I know I can buy the first aid spray, so there's that too. Yeah, I think I'm gonna backtrack.
