There are a few hings that are important. I start with getting myself relaxed. Then I have taught myself to breath in a easy manor. If you are excited you will shake. Calm yourself first. It's easier if you are sitting rather than standing. but it takes practice, practice, practice. Some people close one eye and look down the sights. I shoot with both eyes open but have trained myself to focus with one eye. I'm left handed so I'm left eye dominate, you may be right eye dominate.

(Right handed aiming) hold the butt of the rifle against you right shoulder, keep your finger off the trigger until you have everything else in place. lay the rifle in your left hand. It should be a few inches in front of the trigger. look down the rear sight and place the barrel sight on the target just at the bottom of the bulls eye on the target. Do not grip the rifle real tight with your left hand, sort of let it float. If you hold it to tight with your left hand you will jerk it off target when you fire, it's natural. Relax breathe in and let it out as you place you finger on the trigger. pull back on the trigger with a slow steady motion. You will learn to fell when the trigger will release and fire. When this happens keep the rifle pointed at the target until you hear it hit the target. This takes a lot of practice but you will master it if you keep at it. Also pellets make a lot of difference. Use waddcutter pellets, for target practice. I suggest Beeman or H&N brand. Keep away from cheap pellets they are poorly weighted and wonder off target as the fly downrange.
