Hi Whitdove.<br><br>I am not a lady but I am a
pistol instructor and also coach pistol marksmanship. I
do not know what level your skills are at so I will
assume you are starting out. Work on mastering a
consistant grip on the pistol one that puts the sights
(front and rear) in the proper alingment with you eye
naturally. Then practice dry firing (no live ammo even in
the same room!!!) against a plane white wall or white
poster board. When you can release the trigger without
disturbing the sight alingment at least 9 out of 10 times
you will be on the way to greatly improved scores. Do
not concern yourself with the fact that your gun may
be weaving around on the wall, maintain the sight
alingment at all times. Daily practice is better than
weekly practice. I would also suggest looking into an
AIR pistol (some of the revolver replicas are quite
good). They are accurate and due to the low cost of ammo
will pay for themselves in a short amount of time
compared to the practice cost with your 357.
