With a great deal of practice and experience at long lens technique is the answer to that one.

Even with a tripod, you should be bumping up the shutter speed to get pin sharp shots. With the digital crop factor of your camera, you will see every little bit of vibration on a 400mm lens. From what I can see, it's not the lens that's the problem, you just need to practice.
