Joe Farwell of Tactical Hyve explains a technique for achieving faster splits while maintaining accuracy. The method involves using the middle and ring fingers of the strong hand for trigger manipulation and the support hand for maximum side-to-side contact on the firearm. This approach aims to reduce interference from the strong hand during rapid firing, allowing the gun to cycle efficiently.

Joel Park, a firearms instructor, discusses the importance and methods for achieving fast split times between shots. He defines a split as the time between shots and notes that for most practical shooting, times between 0.13 to 0.18 seconds are achievable and sufficient. Park emphasizes that excessive tension, particularly in the firing hand, is the primary obstacle to fast splits. He advises a firm support hand grip and a relaxed firing hand to allow for independent trigger finger manipulation. While acknowledging extremely fast splits (0.09-0.11s) are often due to bump firing, he suggests focusing on consistent 0.16-0.18s splits is more practical for most shooters, recommending drills that encourage fast shooting and tension management.
