Hey all-

I tend to jerk my hand/trigger finger in anticipation of the bang caused by the gun firing, needless to say they this is very detrimental to my accuracy. What my question is, as I practice more and become used to bang from the gun going off, will my problem start to go away?

Just a note- my dry firing is very good, I can balance a penny on the front sight etc., but of course, I will keep practicing.

Thanks again everyone
