    None or very little thumb or little finger pressure, just the two middle fingers against the palm and pad of trigger finger on the trigger. Back when I used to compete in 22 Standard Pistol comps it was common to see shooters with the little finger almost completely off the grip and the tip of the thumb pointing up. Back in the day I only shot at county level but I used to train in the same club as two of the British squad so I picked up a lot of tips from them. Those guys could read a shot target and could point out where you were going wrong i.e. which finger pressure caused what on the target.

    Remember, it is the strongest character that God gives the most challenges.
