Default Help with Deck Gun

I'm in the middle of a successful patrol. First 3 ships sunk with the Deck Gun, all small coastal freighters. I targeted all the hits manually using the UZO to obtain the range then zooming in the deck gun before setting up the firing solution. I even blew off the complete bridge structure with my first shot on the third ship at 2.0km range!

Imagine my suprise when I tried to engage another small coaster with the deck gun and found all the shells went way left and over the target, even though I applied the same targeting method as before. The cross hairs and range were bang on target.

I then switched to WO orders and let the deck gun fire at will at the hull, result shells on target.

Any idea why the DG should suddenly start firing high & wide?
