Just practice it. Main trick is to jump only when you need it
And try to search for InstaGib servers.

InstantGib servers are bad because there is faster charging

Try playing Elite? the attacker always use laser, make sure you join a pub server though as you won't get kicked out if you suck

Laser is still hard for me too, especially against moving targets, and its slow charging can be hindrance. But of course with more practise, I would be better. I think predicting the target's movements helps too, so the target would move into the laser fire, this is most easy when the target is jumping.

As I understand, he has problems with aim accuracy.

The problem with Elite is, that you nearly don't have any possibility to play it if you are not part of a team. If there would be a queuing system then it would be an opportunity to train the railgun.
Would advise you to maybe try to get the chance to play the heroes mode, because there you'll have the opportunity to train each second round the railgun while you opponents don't have one (as on the instantgib servers) and thus you stay longer alive and are not "instant" dead. And heroes is not so "no team players" unfriendly than most of the players that play elite.

Maybe this post can help you a little bit.

You can get in Elite games quite easily - through scrims on IRC, for example.

Siege also has laser available for attackers.
