One of my most memorable gun duels was in the GWX single mission against the 2 fast troop ships. My torpedo approach (and you get only one try with these guys!, they are bee-lining it at 27 knots +), was filled with duds and misses, so I surfaced up to let them have it with my gun. By then it had become twilight, and they presented a nicely sized target.

Tracers whizzing all over the sea!

I find it helpful to do a range sighting for a moment on the UZO scope before ranging your gun for the first shots. And, I almost always man the deck gun myself.
