It's not how fast the gun is loaded, it's the waiting for the aim point to come back around. The gun isn't sitting still - it's part of the pitching, rolling u-boat, and even if it's loaded instantly the gun captain has to wait until the gun is pointed at the part of the target he wants to hit. In even a 1-meter sea there is a chance he will miss entirely if he doesn't shoot 'on the roll'.
@ RoaldLarsen: Great summary. I wish the game did take all these things into account.
@ Oneshot/Onekill: True, especially in long range naval gunnery, which is never accurate even on a good day. However, a u-boat isn't designed for long-range exchanges, and usually waits until they are at fairly close range, which of course for these guns is about 2000-3000 meters.
