I use manual targeting and use the angle knob to shoot a spread but have tried the above method by unlocking the scope (after sending first shot to MOT) and moving crosshairs and shooting at different sections ship with scope still unlocked - unfortunatley those fish all head for MOT anyway. I've even gone to trouble of setting up a single game with a stationary ship in mission editor and practicing this technique on it, but all went to MOT - so must not be sending separate bearing for each shot. When using this method, how does one "send new bearing to TDC"? If I lock the scope, it jumps back to MOT. Thanks!
