This note should be easy to hit. What exactly is happening? Are you getting the G below it or the D above it? Or...?
Have you check it against a tuner? If your horn is way out of tune on this note, you might find it more difficult to hit.
Are you using the 1+2 valve combination? Try using the 3rd valve instead and see if that helps. You might also try 2+4; but I doubt that would sound very good.
Also, if you have access to another horn, try playing the B-natural on it and see if you find it as difficult.
