Marksmanship. Get at least 10 MM and a 10 ql sling.

Marksman Is the Skill You Raise.. Raise it to 10-20 and the acc meter should raise faster

This. One warning, though: the quality of your ranged weapon caps how much of the MM skill is used: 2x for slings and wooden bows, 3x for ranger bows. (Arrows also do the same, but quality of arrows are usually as high or higher than the bow.) Thus, if you're only working with a q10 sling, there's no point in getting 30 MM until you get a better sling.

Both. High MM gets it to go higher faster, but the amount of MM that is effective is capped by the quality of your ranged weapon. (See my previous post.)

just before it turns green is usually best...not sure why but you miss more with a full aim bar

may be selective, but I don't recall ever hitting an animal when my aim bar was completely full. on the other hand it takes far less time to get the aim bar high into the yellow, and I don't think I've ever missed from high yellow unless it was going green by just a bit.

if you don't want to take my word for it go grab a sling and test it yourself(lower quality, no more than 30ish, so you can get more hits without killing the animal and give you more results).
