I believe people shoot two ways either you like the predictability of knowing pretty much exactly when the trigger will break (little pre travel) or there's the other way when you "wait for the recoil method" if anyone has ever read the Carlos Hathcock story "MARINE SNIPER" he talks of this way of shooting. You line up your target hold the scope reticle steady on it and squeeze the trigger you don't know when its coming, but if you can keep the + on the target until you feel the recoil you should hit your target because by the time you feel the recoil the bullet has left the muzzle. I have tried both way and at times I fine myself trying to predict the recoil and I get shaky for me I like know exactly when the trigger will break I just shoot better not "waiting on the recoil"
