Nice shootin' iron.
I just picked up a Marlin Guide Gun in .45-70. Got some 525 grain hard cast bullets to load up for it when I get the chance.
As far as shooting drills go, I would venture that the drills for a bullseye shooter are not the same as those for an IPSC shooter which are not the same as for a LEO, which are not the same as for an SF soldier.
Training starts with an analysis of the skills required for the intended purpose, and then maps a route to acquire and ingrain the specific skills needed. Olympic class sprinters do not use the same routine as marathon runners. Practice does not make perfect, perfect practice does. And as I was recently told, look for TTPs that work 100% of the time, in 100% of the conditions. Dark, light, hot, cold, amped up, tired, kitted up, naked, it has to work all of the time. I am trying to get rid of some old habits, and it is not easy.
HTH.
