Check the examples in the rules. Scott is correct.

Huh, I always took the shooting rules to mean that in the situation you
described, one Ogryn stand would be killed (by the 6), one Ogryn stand
would be unaffected (by a 3) and one Heavy stand would be killed (by the
other 3). So, net effect is one Ogryn and one Heavy, with one die pinging
off of the Ogryn's armor.
