Can I ask what type of .22 are you shooting?
Does it have a strong trigger pull?
The pushing doesn't sound like a finger placement problem(shoulders maybe). If it is a semiauto is your finger flipping off the trigger between shots?
Shoot the first shot and hold trigger back, then slowly release the trigger keeping pressure on it till it resets. You will feel this and possible hear it. You said Basics so I hope this isn't too basic.
I don't subscribe to the school of Shooting more ammo makes you a better shot. As others have said dry firing is good and the key is to always do the same thing once you find what works. I also recommend Ball and Dummy as one of the best ways to make sure you have corrected the problem. Good luck and have fun shooting.
I bought a Walther P22 and its a fun gun. The recoil is almost nonexistent.
