Hold training

Hi

Could someone please suggest a training routine i could do daily with my pistol at home to improve my hold/grouping?

I'm thinking along the lines of hold for x secs, rest for x secs, repeat x times......

Along with dry firing/Scatt training.

Thanks!

The advantage is that because there's no score- and often no target- you can better focus on sp...

New shooter drill/dry fire questions

Hi! New shooter here. Here's some really basic questions. 1) just got my first air pistol. How do I "dry fire" at home and what exactly should I do to practice at home? Do you literally just not load, leave it open and shoot with the cansiter on? Or canister off? Are there lists of dry fir...
