[QUOTE="saryan, post: 860337, member: 1214"] Working on your trigger pull with live firing with a inaccurate rifle or a rifle that causes you to flinch is not productive training. You wont know if your doing it right. Spend some time dry firing. I have dry fired my sig 226 twice as much as I have fired it and it has around 9,000 rounds through it. The reason was to learn the DA/SA trigger. My double action pull lands the same place my single does now because of my muscle memory. Unload your rifle, make sure its empty and then make someone else check the chamber.Put the rifle up where your shooting into a mirror. You need to be able to see your crosshairs back through your scope. Match your crosshairs in the mirror up with the crosshairs in the scope, pull the trigger without moving off of them. Do that over and over. Its the cheapest and best way to learn whatever trigger you have. Trigger is not real important right now. Training is first, but needs to grow with the rifle. Find someone who has a .25moa rifle and see if you can meet them at the range. Everything matters. Your hands, your cheek, your shoulder, your legs, your breathing...everything.
