30 years ago when I was shooting regularly... (I was a member of the Army shooting team)
The thing that improved my shooting more than anything else was practice. The unit I was with taught dry shooting. That is practising stance, movement and technique dry with no bullets. Then after hours of practice we went to the range and fired live ammo. Just a regular 10, 25 meter ranges at first then we graduated to small courses. Then the complex ones. This was a long time ago and I had 20/20 visions but after about 3 years of competitive shooting (and countless rounds of ammo) I was getting an almost "sense" when I was on target. As I moved the pistol into position I could almost feel I was on target. This was with a 9 mm Browning High Power. It's not like sharp shooting with a .22 pistol.
Could I do it now? Not right away but with practice and lots of time I could get my skills back.
