What I usually do is try to get it on the bull, then I close it all the way and slowly start to open it until it comes into focus.

i agree. Give the dude a break. He probably feels bad enough already, even if he doesn't tell that to everyone. Put yourself in his shoes, wouldnt you be a little nervous knowing people expect you to win a gold everytime you compete? Have a little sympathy for the guy.

trigger

Set it to be comfortable. If you aren't jerking the trigger (which you shouldn't be) than you don't have to worry about barrel movement.
