Slow way down. Flinch lives in 'rushing.' When I shoot deliberately and call my shots, it disappears. When I speed up under a timer, it sneaks back.
It never fully dies, you just learn to manage it. Even good shooters dry fire and ball-and-dummy regularly to keep it suppressed. It's maintenance, not a cure.
800 rounds is still pretty early honestly. Be patient and keep doing ball and dummy. It'll fade.
The fact that you're clean on the .22 tells you it's mental, not mechanical. Your body knows how to do it. Bridge the gap by alternating .22 and 9mm in the same session.
What killed mine: a LOT of dry fire focused on a perfectly still front sight as the striker drops, then transferring that to live fire in small doses. Took me maybe 3 months of consistent work.
Grip pressure was my fix. I was loose and letting the recoil surprise me. Crushing grip with the support hand made the gun more predictable and the flinch faded.
