- Grip the gun really hard. Grip pressure should be relatively equal in both hands. Grip pressure should be high at the final extension of the handgun. Grip the gun as hard as you can without shaking.
Felt recoil can be impacted by the power factor of a specific load. I've tuned my load for my competition guns and the recoil spring is tuned to bring the gun back quickly after each shot. Try different grains and check the FPS of each load to see what feels good in your gun.

Every time a pistol’s trigger is pulled the pistol is going to go into and through its recoil cycle. If a shooter does not know how, or is not accustomed to reacting properly to the persistently disruptive force and required redirection of that recoil then his aim is going to be thrown off, and fast accurate follow-up shots will be much more diffic...
Handguns, all handguns, are lousy, inefficient, and anemic weapons that are inherently more difficult to use than (just about) any long arm ever could be. The essential value of any handgun is to be found in its convenient size, portability, and ease of both concealment and carry. Beyond question: Additional skill, practice, and training are requir...

Compared to shooting a revolver, there’s much less of a tendency to either drop the muzzle; or, upon ignition, torque the gun towards the tips of the fing...

Instead, learn how to allow your hand(s) to horizontally manage the pistol for you by means of using both a proper firing-grip along with properly preconditioned proprioceptive reflexes! ...
