Deck gun accuracy?

What's up with this? Thought maybe damaged gun? Nope - even went to port for refit.

Maybe your barrel is overheating and warping out of shape?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I sometimes have that same problem with my deckgun in SH3. Once in a while, about halfway through a patrol, I center the crosshairs onto a merchant or tanker that's dead in the water. Even though the crosshairs are aimed at the waterline below the funnel in a relatively calm sea, the shells actually hit at the waterline about 10 feet or so from the stern. Just a minor glitch...more annoying than anything else.
