Yes, but are you training or practicing at the range?
Practicing fundamentals and training on what I need to work on.

I grip it pretty much the same way I do a rifle or PCC. I have my hand out there towards the end of the rail, thumb over the top and index finger pointed towards the target, but don't have arm completely straight with elbow locked like I see some do.
I grip it the exact same way. One thing I do that tends to help with the wobble is pulling the gun in tighter into my shoulder with my off hand. Get it in there nice and tight and it should be better. Hope this helps.

I usually dryfire 2 to 3 times a week and try to go the range once a week. During the the shooting season I’ll take a week off of training and leave the guns in the safe after a match, helps me re focus when I get back to it. Another thing that really helps me is having someone take video of me when I’m shooting stages at a match. That way I can watch them, critique myself, and figure out what I need to work on and incorporate that into dryfire and range sessions. I always start range sessions with fundamental work then pick up the intensity from there.

I have one. There is an initial break in period with these to be able to run 115gr in it. A lot of people have reported the gun stove piping at first with the 115gr. I ran 250 rounds of 124gr FMJ and 250 rounds of 147gr FMJ through it right of the bat and haven’t even had one issue with it. Fun gun for sure.

I shoot 3 gun and will probably dabble into some USPSA and PRS in the near future. Using this site to learn and share what little knowledge I have if I can help someone.

I’m not a “pro” but I’m loving the 18”Criterion in my new 3 gun rifle. Odin Works also makes great barrels, definitely worth looking at.

I ended up going with the Brass Limcat magwell. It was loose at first, but nothing a few little pieces of foam cut from a koozi under the mainspring housing and the front of the grip couldn’t fix. She’s rock solid and I’m loving it!

I just recently purchased a Nighthawk Custom Sandhawk iOS and am looking for a large hands magwell to put on it. I did order a Dawson large hands one but was wondering if there are any other options I could try. Has anyone tried any different magwells on one of Nighthawks double stack grips? Thanks in advance.

What is best training or practice and why?

Myself. I watch the video of stages I shoot. Watch footwork, like was it really beneficial for me to turn and run vs would it of been more beneficial to take a few shuffle steps into that same position, should I have manipulated the gun different coming into a position (like start having the gun up coming into the position vs me getting into the position then bringing the gun up) the list goes on and on. Training yourself in low round count weapon manipulation drills goes a long way in this game. Like shoot one, reload shoot another one while getting good hits on target. I have found those drills to be very beneficial for myself. If I just set a bunch of targets up and I’m missing it’s harder to tell what’s going wrong. The low round count drills really help with that if you break it down into steps. You can also do these drills with the guns empty while dry firing.
