One good way to learn to shoot accurately by being steady...shoot a difficult air gun.

So, several weeks into ownership (and over 500 pellets down range) I can now re-iterate with even more conviction that this is the most challenging gun I have ever fired. It's really teaching me the fundamentals again - hold, squeeze, follow-through, etc. If not done exactly the same, each and every time in every little detail, this thing will throw a flyer. I'm getting on top of it now, but boy, I had not realized how sloppy I had gotten. The Webley is a pretty demanding little task master, and will not suffer that. It's been very frustrating, challenging, and most of all, great good fun.
