Something definitely feels wrong with most ballistics in this game. Hope they can fix it soon.

I do agree with the OP, and the various diagrams that people have posted are very useful illustrations of the problem.
My preferred solution, as others have posted, would be pilot-selectable convergence settings:
1. Automatic, i.e. weapons converge at weapon-specific crosshair distance (as it is now).
2. Weapons converge at the distance of the currently locked target.
3. Weapons converge at a selectable pre-set distance (has to be set in mechlab, shades of WW2 aircraft gun convergence here).
A possible problem with option 2 is that this would probably require a targeting computer, something that we're not going to see for years: http://www.sarna.net...geting_Computer
