Torpedo tube doors open agonizingly slow.

At any rate, spread angle is your friend. If your target is moving to the left in your periscope, use about a 4 or 5 degree Left spread angle. If your target is moving to the right in your periscope, use a 4 or 5 degree right spread angle. Hit's every time.

This works to help alleviate the problem, but one thing to add: Of course a 4 to 5 degree angle will work at close range. Farther out, you may have to cut this number down. YMMV and all that.
