Default Poor Ranging?

When observing my ships fight/chase opponents in tactical combat, I often see then shooting just out of range over and over again and wasting ammo. They seem to slow up as they do this, never quite gaining until a lucky shot falls to slow the opposing ship.

If I take control and overun the ship, they finally hit.

Why are they slowing up as they shoot? What do you think is happening here? do I have a bad 'strategy' picked? I think it's optimal firing range.... whatever the default is..

thanks,

Javaslinger
