Too bad we dont have this graph in the game yet.
Actually that would be awesome to have in the interface.

In any case, once they de-bug the loadout screens we will still have a pretty powerful tool. I think the whole idea behind having separate settings for each gun is letting us do pattern boresighting.

There was a thread in the IL2:46 sub-forum about this and it seemed quite effective. Guns were setup in pairs and each pair had its own convergence. Using the effect you describe along with separate convergence settings, it was possible to have 3-4 different ranges where the guns would achieve a good grouping to ensure hits.
