First "what ever works".
Take your hammer and smack the table a few times.. use the same grip and place the little finger UNDER grips [rap or bent]
If you want it to hit the same place one or two handed,, grip with the shooting hand and "cup" with the off hand to make sure the gun kicks the same way.
Up close and fast grab with two hands tight.
The shooting hand does most of the gripping ,the off hand is for support.
On heavy kickers the gun may jump out of the offhand but in all cases the gun should not move in the shooting hand.[ the wrist will as will the elbo]
On the hardest kickers [starting with .454mag] just hang on!!!!!!!!
They will do the rest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
