Does this relate to shooting? Somehow, I'm sure...

I can totally understand how this relates to shooting in many ways.

I was doing some dry fire tonight, and noticed how at first I was very clumsy about hitting my reloads. Then after about 30 minutes I noticed I was hitting my reloads before the 'empty' mag hit the floor. I saw the action of the 'empty' mag falling at the same time as I saw the fresh mag go into the gun, and I smoothly came back up on target. I was seeing things more clearly, and my movements were more fluid.

But was I seeing and doing better because I was grooved in, or was I simply hitting better reloads because I was seeing more ? Paying more attention to my actions ?

Perception or reality ?
