Did cannons get a buff ?

I typically take along a mix of multis for the fast and nimble targets and cannons for the larger targets. But since 1.1 I'm consistently hitting even eagles and adders with my cannons. It appears as if they got a bullet speed buff ?

Heh, I tried my first Turreted Cannon recently (post v1.1 update) and the thing empties an entire clip vs. a Cobra not hitting it once. Still, turreted weapons are pretty poor at aiming generally I think. Are you using Fixed, Gimballed or Turreted?

Hmm, interesting. I'll try them out when I get a chance. I love the cannons but I find the low muzzle velocity makes them next to useless against fast moving targets.

Having read this post I replaced two gim multi cannon with two gim cannon on my asp and have to say they appear faster firing and better damaging than I remember, at least on a T6 :)

gonna try another two and drop MC altogether

Have you upgraded your Sensors? They have a big effect on targetting. I've noticed something different, especially against smaller ships lek Eagles, where my Beam LASERs and MCs, both gimballed appear to get more hits at the 1.5km distance. But it could be that I'm getting better at tailing too. I'm all the way up to Novice now. Woooooo.

I have an Asp now, so I might try them out on that.
