Maybe I'm just not pro enough yet, but unless I'm targeting a lone ship, I'm usually diving deep, or lining up a different target when the torpedo hits, so I don't have much of a clue exactly where it impacts, unless I glance at the event camera. I'm just happy to hear the "torpedo impact!" announcement, no matter where the thing hits.

I usually do the following:

Ships less than 3000 tons - If I do decide to shoot at them, 1 torpedo set on magnetic or impact, depending on how I'm feeling.

Ships from 3000 tons to 10,000 tons - 2 torpedoes, one set to impact, one set to magnetic (unless I am not totally certain that my ship type id is correct, in which case i will fire both of them on impact at 3m depth)

Ships greater than 10,000 tons - what a prize! I'll use 3 to 4 torpedoes on these guys, on the rare occasion I run across one.
