Thanks everyone for some great advice.

I used to do a bit of DTL trap shooting and two things stuck out. The good guys had a defined "shot routine" which they would go thru for every shot. Second, I never remembered telling myself to pull the trigger - it just happened. I never thought to apply that to rifle shooting but there is no reason why the brain could not be trained to do that. The advice on using 22s and air rifles / pistols makes sense - certainly would be cheaper, less / no recoil, and would help to avoid developing a flinch. Also starting at small ranges and dry firing on targets makes sense. I will try it all out.

I will probably be a bit analytical about this exercise - keep my targets and make some notes. I will revive the thread in about 6 months and give you an update. Thanks again for all the advice and yes it will be enjoyable.

Regards
375Fetish
