Both models should have 2 × 20 mm ShVAK cannons.. which were solid from everything I can gather.

Almost seems like the muzzle velocity on the rounds is very low or something. I can never get the lead right after flying other planes.
Most 109s (aside from the E-3 and G-6 with underwing cannon gondolas) don't actually have convergence as their weapons are mounted on the engine cowling and in the spinner. Due to that they are the most accurate gun platforms in the game. I'm not an expert on the 20mm ShVAK cannons, but all cannons have significantly lower muzzle velocities and rates of fire than 7.62 or 12.5mm ammunition, so yeah, you're gonna get some significant drop going on.
