It would be hard to get the angle just right to get the bullet all the way down the barrel without it impacting the sides of the barrel

Bullets are deflected along surprisingly sharp bends in a barrel (or any other pipe), so it would be sufficient to hit the tank gun muzzle roughly from the front, and it would probably hit a loaded projectile.
