So, the replies pretty much confirm what I originally thought... Though the problem is now moot anyway. Instead of short of ISK, I am now short of skills for the Golem (logical evolution of my situation).
for the way I run missions
I think I found the problem. although can't be sure without seeing the fits, and/or hearing the tactics.

I use a cruise CNR with an autocannon Macharial. With a 3.1 sec ROF and a 40-50km range on the Mach, the thing eats cruisers and frigs on approach alive, and it's fast enough to close range on BS's the CNR is still working on when the small stuff is gone. Every non-elite ship pops in 2-3 volleys, so nothing ever really gets close enough to be inside it's envelope. Makes the second room of Mordus Headhunters into a turkey shoot lol.
I imagine you could do something similar with a Pest or a Maelstrom (or a Vargur if you were so inclined). I've been toying around with the idea of loading out the Mach with sentries to help with long range DPS, but haven't tried it yet. The only bad part of using autocannons is that it goes through a crap-ton and a half of ammo, but other than that projectile ships definately got a nice boost this time around.

2X Dread specific hardners.
Lows:
3x Kaikka balistic controls

I put my drones on frigs first . I generaly have 3 frigs and 3 BS targeted .My skills are almost specced for missioning and I solo every mission in the game except EA 5. (Lvl 4's)
I let all my targets come to 40 km or less from me , and I come back and salvage with a Golem after all is killed .
If the targets are way out there , I fly right at them and still try and keep the wreck radius tight as possible for the salvaging later.

Depends what you mean by "t1 battleship"...is that "Raven, Scorp, Rokh, Domi, Hype, Mega, Mael, Phoon, Pest, Geddon, Apoc, Abaddon"? Is it just the true "t1" BSes (example would be Raven...Abaddon is a "tier 3" battleship)? CNR is a faction BS...just like Scorp Navy is.
"T1" is referring to tech level, not tier. The OP is clearly looking for a ship that they can fly without the potentially huge time-sink of skilling for a tech 2 battleship.
...but, regardless of that, Raven is tier 2, not tier 1. Scorpion is the tier 1 Caldari BS.

He use CNR to kill then salvage with the golem lol...I could understand maybe if you killed with a domi and then cleaned up with a kronos.

To mostly echo what earlier posts have said: The missile boats are great because of their adaptable damage type, but if you know what you're going to be going up against (and when missioning in hisec for a certain faction, you usually do) a turret boat with ammo that drives right into the weak point of your chosen enemy is going to be more effective.
