Thank you for the first laugh of the day!I reload, therefore, I am.
Yup. Recoil anticipation/pulling the trigger instead of squeezing the trigger. Practice trigger pull by holding an empty 500ml Ozarka water bottle with the cap on tight. Move the finger back and forth just enough to hear the plastic crack.Low left is normal for right handed shooters of course.
The trigger on this has a long travel, then you hit resistance and you have have to increase the pull strength to hit that click.Yup.

I was told something very similar! I wanted to start at 3 yards-- but I had to work with people that were already at the range. I figured that was ok-- just wanted to shoot the gun and start to get a feel for it. I was looking at that target paper again, and none of my shots would have been off the torso. In fact-- all the shots would have been contained in about the middle 60~70% of a torso. That said-- I still want that grouping to happen on top of the bullseye.We had a good drill I recall learning from Jerry Jones with OpSpec Training that might help you. Jerry called it the "bump drill" (Which I think he got from Bruce Gray)
Basically start at 3yds and work your way back over time. But distance isnt the real thing.
Come up on target, take out the slop/slack until you feel the wall.
Now with tiny movements, press the trigger a little bit and relax the takeup you just got, again a little more and let back out (maintain contact with the trigger and the wall dont let the slop creep in) again a little more (1/32 -1/64" more each time each time maybe?) until the Bang surprises you.
The idea was to see how many perceptible "bumps" you can get before the bang. Each bump you're taking a little more of the wall.
In theory you can do it dry firing as well.
Do that for a couple of hours straight (I think we did it for like 50-100 rounds) and you'll have a MUCH better feel for your trigger!
Here's Bruce talking about it.
