however much yyou think you need to lead their flight path ("where they're gonna be"), double it and you might get close to being right.
At least, thats what it takes for me.
sim, just practise it a little more, in all situations. once you start to hit well, never think about lead, let your brain do it by instinct. over time and with practise your brain subconsiously records everything, and it records where you think you should have put the bullets. after doing it a lot, you brain starts to get the hang of it, and
I find that after learning how to lead, if you think about it too much, your aim gets worse, but if you let yourself do it as a natural reaction to what your brain recognises as a gun solution, you usually hit perfectly.
atleast, that's what i find

just trust your instincts, they're usually right;)
