Ok I have desided to fly Amarr, got a good setup for lvl4 missions tank + tachyon beams+1 cruise launcher on my abaddon. When I do missions the average hits I get is 150 sometimes even as low as 65, and that is on a BS rat that has therm or EM as its lowest resists.
I even use a trick when I make it follow me so it wont orbit and still my average hit is 120.
What do I eed to do to get those "you blah blah was aimed well doing good damage" hits? And no Im not wondering about wrecking shots. Just want to reduce my "scratching" hits. Thats wht confuses me in gunnery?
Any thoughts?

Don't really fly Amarr my self but you may be better off with pulse lasers rather than tach's? if you want to stick with beams i would go with megabeams personally, tachs are mainly for snipeing.

Well check you have good skills in a few gunnery.
I fly a similar setup. Different ship I use an Apoc but it carrys tachyons and 2 launchers (dont worry its not the best setup dont have a go at me this setup holds cap the megabeams dont , I dont use the abaddon much as this is a cap hungry beast and although all my cap skills are at 4 its not enough even with 3x ccc) I use amarr navy crystals Gamma ones which gives me a range around 40 K which is good for blood raiders i dont like being NOS'ed
put a couple of heat sink IIs in the low slots .. I actually just switched mine for Amarr navy heat sinks but even before Most hits where for over 200 HP
The last mission i did a little earlier I was averaging around 315 HP a hit on a blood raider battleship ..
I have a tracking computer in a mid slot which helps the aim giving better hits.
Also train up gunnery skills of course the damage ones like surgical strike , Large energy turrets
And of course skills that improve tracking
Hope this gives you some ideas

what crystals are you using? if you have the long range ones in then no, you will never do much damage. the nice thing about amarr is you can get a set of crystals to get the best damage for what ever range the rats are at. so do some tweaking, put one of each crystal in and see what ranges you get. work out which crystals you need to get a nice cover of full range to close range. also work towards t2 guns and ammo, see if you have space for damage mods and make sure you fly in a way that gets the rats running down your gun barrels.
Because sometimes you just have to go back to your roots:
