You might have a littel better luck with a gyro angle of 000, though not much seeing as it is only five degrees off where you fire from now. Other than that I have one other general tip for you: focus mostly on target's speed and the AOB. The range to target is largly irrelivant so long as it is in side your torpido's maximum range and outside 300m range, if it is closer than that the torpido won't arm. Oh, also, identifying the nationality of the target ship isn't all that important when it comes to merchant shiping, I don't spend much time at all on flags, just glance at it and if it looks like a bad-guy flag I send it to the botom. General rule, if it has a red flag on it the target is good enuf to shoot.
You might also try starting with the second or seventh flotillia. Both of those start you out in a type 7. The extra fule you get is one bounous but the best parts are the aft tube and the 14 torpido carring capacity, the deck gun comes in handy to. learning manual targeting in a type two can be a real pain.
