Actually, no!, range is not the most important thing, speed is! Speed determines how much the torpedos need to be deflected. Range is only important if the torpedos need to turn much after firing. It's only for a slight correction. But if you do manual targeting, 2 range and bearing measurements with the periscope can be used to let the TDC calculate the path of the target and therefore it's speed.

This thread contains the most information about manual targeting with the US TDC.
