Impact seems to give instant kills while magnetic either sinks slowly or not at all.

This was the case for all navies during WWII. Magnetic mines were often faulty or "duds" as they were called. When the Swordfish planes sent to attack the Bismarck but accidently attacked the Sheffield they used magnetic torpedoes. All but one exploded on contact with the sea. Also impact torpedoes will do more damage cause they hit the hull and explode instead of exploding near a magnetic "anamoly."
