Obviously changing guns is tough on your shooting, especially when the guns have different dimensions, but, hey, it makes for great excuses when you miss...and for a memorable day (like yours) when things work. The clean left barrel and a decent bag is a day to remember for sure!
Yeah, that excuse works both ways. If you're at a big shoot, and one of the vendors hands you a nice (read expensive) gun, and says "try this one for a couple a rounds" You're in trouble! Chances are, you will shoot that gun lights-out, at least until you actually own it. Then the "new gun" thing can double back on you, especially if you're trying to impress someone with your shooting prowess. Then you can claim the "new gun" excuse for missing.
Ask me how I know all this.
