Indy_Guy_77 will become famous soon enough
When I've found myself flinching in anticipation of the recoil from my Kahr CW-40... I either A) really concentrate on NOT flinching and letting the recoil "suprise me", or B) putting that pistol down and going with something "less powerful".

I don't remember flinching when shooting that .40 P99, though.

Its more of a shovel / push action... pushing towards the target.

sounds like youre squeezing (fast trigger pull)the trigger. you want to pull the trigger back slowly, let it suprise you. if you do it slow and let it suprise you, the only time you jerk should be when the gun runs out of ammo..

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.

pushing straight into the target shouldn't be a problem at all.
Flinching on the other hand is completely different.

Consider borrowing/buying shooting missology from tactical response. It really opened my eyes. I shoot a lot better now because of it.

there is a bit of a difference between flinching and anticipating recoil. a flinch is reactive and the other proactive. dry fire and ball and dummy drills will help both, but the anticipation can be harder to fix. the handgun is going to recoil. don't fight it. you really can't fight it effectively. try watching the front sight and just letting the gun cycle. try not to actively push the gun back down, just let your firm grip get your sights back on target. easier to show than explain. ymmv.

i developed the same problem by trying to fight the gun back down on target to go faster during an ipsc match. it was proven to me that i couldn't fight it and it was faster to let the gun cycle.
