Whats a best cannon for CA class in Kriegsmarine ?

i can only support the stuff about damage consisctency

18" are broken guns - couldn't one shoot a Moltke, got 7k damage on a KGV without a single
0 popping up...

16.5" are the way to go

***
and 16.5 can never do more than what...30k on a full salvo? while on 18'' i did this 43k
salvo on this H39 the other day
***
with several crits...

***
Could you please explain how those are better than regular gunners (which hit the acc cap
ofc) of the same level?

as far as i know veterans put ability beyond the cap (if you know what i mean)

they also tighten the spread when shooting at odd directions

16.5"

after i have been trying the 18" for some time now i must say that the damage is piss poor

30k damage with a full hit is a fucking joke

gonna try the 16.5 now and then i'll say something about it

16.5 faster and i vote 16.5

updated.

18"

lies ^^

16.5

I observed more tighten spread and better hit rate coming along withharder hitting
.Always made better average attack games then i used to do with 16.5s.So i i
just kep playing 18s until 120.Maybe i adopt my game better or used to happened
to play h44 better i dont know all i know is 18s are better but thats my take.
