Perhaps you are using a much too weak gun? Most, if not all, tanks during WW2 had the thickest armor at the front hull and turret front/gun mantlet. Most US guns will have problems to punch thru, as an example, the hull and/or turret front of the German "Big Cats (Panther, Tiger I, Tiger II and Jagdtiger) and these will in return, kill your tank with ease at the same range.
The key to a quick and easy kill, is to aim for for the turret and hull sides and/or rear. If you cant see the sides, try to flank them before they can see and/or return fire.
