When do you proceed to the next lock?

When do you precede to the next lock?
In my attempts to LEARN a particular lock not just just pick it once and move on. Neither have I just memorized the pin order. For some odd reason I hit a few stumbling blocks in that when I thought (oh I now know how to pock this platform) after successfully single pin picking it more than several times without tooo much difficulty I moved to the next.
Got up to the Master #532 and alllmost get it...then nope, not yet?! So went back to the previous one, had difficulty opening it again, then went back another level same thing. Went back until could get them open on command. (or in a short reasonable time should say)
So today had a MAJOR breakthrough in my learning. > went clear back to my Abus Titalium.
I have never seen a false set on the first pin, but have to give it about three consecutive clicks. Also have to use extreme finesse, then the rest of the pins I can feel when each one gives slight reverse rotation on the core.
Now the other locks going back forward are having me scratching my head, as they are all master locks. The #150 I can open but not just easily all the time one day get it afew times, then go back and have to learn it all over again. The #570 can open it sort of like the 150, but struggle a bit more. Already stated the #532 almost get then not yet successful. (the Master #17 also ..almost then, nope)
I know these cannot be this tough. Any tips or pointers? With these they just don't seem to give me much feedback. When I do get them to click, (using more tention, have neven opened them that way. Only with very light, and as stated the feedback is little to none, as like other locks.
Sorry for the long post, but have struggled with these for a long, long, long time.
I want to learn the lock type, not just pick it once and move on. So I will be able to pick anything as I progress. I know it takes longer, but in the end I believe will have better results with faster times, instead of taking forever like some of the vids online.
