Flintlock flinching

I have a new Pennsylvania style flintlock that I am having a ball (no pun intended) learning to shoot. I have now learned how to get reliable ignition so I am moving on to improving my accuracy. I seem to be having a bit of trouble with flinching as the pan charge goes off such that when the main charge goes, my aim is off. The delay between primer charge and main charge is as short as I think I can make it but there is still a fraction of a second to deal with. Are there any tricks or exercises to help with this flincing other than just shooting a lot?
