[QUOTE="twoftagl, post: 688620, member: 46908"] Dry Fire lots and lots. It will help you get more consistent in several different ways, including breathing and especially with flinch. Once you get to the range, concentrate on exactly the same thing you did during dry fire. If you find yourself flinching, go back to dry fire. A good exercise with revolvers is leave a chamber or two empty and give it a good spin. Sometimes you get a live round. Sometimes you get an empty chamber. When the hammer falls on a dead chamber, if the pistol moved then you flinched. You can replicate this with a rifle if you have a shooting partner. Load up the magazine, and look away while your friend closes the bolt. Instruct him to every now and again push down on the round in the magazine so it doesn't load. When the pin drops on an empty chamber, you'll know if you flinched. About the scopes....here's a good read. I'd go with his recommendation on the break-in.
