Some people have a real problem with accuracy when firing handguns...especially large caliber handguns. Many people will flinch when they fire because of the recoil. This causes the barrel of the gun to move slightly.
This is how my dad cured me of that. He loaded a 44 magnum but left a chamber empty. He handed me the gun and told me to start shooting. When I got to the empty chamber, the barrel dipped down. We repeated this little exercise until I could hold the gun steady. This works best if you have an observer watching you. Remember. Don't pull the trigger. Squeaze it slowly. Slow and steady pressure is what you need. It should be a complete surprise when the gun fires, or you're doing it wrong.
