The thing to realize is also that GWX models damage more realistically so even if you hit a target and it doesn't immediately sink it may sink within hours. The last convoy I hunted I hit 3 ships with one torpedo a piece, two of them around 3600 GRT and one about 6800 GRT. The big boy didn't sink without a second torpedo but the two smaller ones sank within a couple hours.
