3 minute 15 rule

Hi all

I recently consulted wazoos manual targeting tutorial and read through the entire thing excluding the wheel manual targeting section in favour of fast 90 basic and advanced methods. The purpose of this post is to ask this question

Is there a faster method of determining course and speed rather than using the 3 minute 15 second rule? - I know I have used the nomograph to determine speed in one minute accurately but what about the targets course in less than that time because by the time you wait 3 min 15 a destroyer can locate you or a target pass you by. BTW you can hit the target if you calculate course in 1 minute too but the torpedoe seems to take 15 seconds longer or more to hit the target
