Thats not what you asked. You asked if you were crazy.. xD

And they aren't reduced. The reason you have a problem hitting them, is because there is no targetting reticule when you select them as a target. You need to mentally provide your own deflection shot marker, and fire there, then adjust for your speed and direction if it doesn't hit. Simple vector calculations, which a brain is quite capable of doing instinctively, both in the virtual world of computer games, as well as in the real world as done by skeet shooting contestants, hunters, and fighter pilots daily.

Old ironsight type of shooting, instead of just firing at the computed deflection targetting cross.
