Though as I understand it some of the older fiction has used the table top ranges as the basis of events in-universe.

This is the same kind of logic that gives Star Wars blasters a range of 30-35 meters in the fiction....
My own take: since we know the tonnage and speeds of the mechs, calculate ST/HP, LWt, and Move off that, give them appropriate Hnd/SR scores for the feel you're going for, base the weapons on their closest GURPS equivalents, and DR able to withstand what they're intended to face off against. Done. :)
