Been noticing that for faster mechs, the hitbox tends to be ahead of where the mech is actually displayed. This makes it horrid for focusing any point on a mech since I find myself firing into water 90% of the time just to register red on my crosshair and see damage splash across the mech. By far worst with light mechs, centi and dragon, but I have seen it happen on stalkers too.

I'm pretty sure that this is what is happening.
It actually happens in a lot of games, some times intentionally (like the hunter's hitbox in L4D2 is actually well ahead of the visible model when pouncing).
In MWO I think the wonky collision netcode is causing the hitbox to detach from the visible model.

No
It simply is that you (as a player) just see in the past (target mech is not really there anymore). How much, depends on your latency and your opponent latency.
