I'm an impact pistol fan, and rarely will I use magnetics (I'd say about 80% of my shots are impact settings, set to about 2.5 - 3 meters depth, AOB between 70 and 110 degrees). Whenever I do use magnetics, I don't find I get so many duds as I do early detonations due to choppy seas and torpedos going under the ships due to the up and down motion of the waves.

Very very very rarely do I get a torpedo that just bounces off the hull. This leads me to believe that impact pistols are more reliable than magnetics.
