8. Another method you can try

Next time you are at the range, hang a target and do some dry fire practice. after three PERFECT dry fire shots in a row, load one round and fire. Then to back to dry fire mode until you achieve three more PERFECT dry fires in a row. Repeat until every first shot of your dry fire practice is perfect, then try a full magazine/cylinder.

I prefer this method as it mixes dry fire with live rounds with no surprises. This helps teach your body what a properly executed shot feels like. In my experience, it has been more effective than the "ball and dummy" drill hat many people use.

I would suggest a good (I'm partial to S&W) double action revolver, if you are using something else. Callisto32 Dec 2011 #5
