I forgot to mention, if you don't regularly do physical labor, all kinds of exercises help improve shooting. I keep a set of 3-lb weights by my desk and lift them when I'm otherwise engaged in something like a phone conversation.

There's a Marine marksmanship manual also. I have read both and prefer the Army's. (Sorry.)

The Army pistol marksmanship training guide is on hundreds of web sites as a PDF or HTML.

It's really an excellent example of our tax dollars at work. It discusses sighting, grip, stance, breathing, and even general health and the effects of legal drugs.

Sure. Stop and rest a little.

Seriously, in real life, no one is going to need to shoot 60 rounds a minute from a handgun. I've seen people do that at the range.

I actually shoot a revolver most of the time, so I'm taking only six shots and intentionally reloading slowly. After every six, I look off into the distance to rest my eyes. If I start to observe "flyers," I put the piece down and stretch.

Have you read the U.S. Army pistol marksmanship training guide?
