[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 105012, member: 8843"] Hey moe , I doubt that your the only guy that has never been to a compition , I know that it can get hard to work up loads down here , I'm sure its the same anywhere else in the summer. I built a little rig to cool my barrels using some tygon tubing a Nalgyne bottle and one of those chamber plugs , it alows you to flush cool water through your barrel to cool it down without getting your gun all wet. their are several way to cool your gun down at the range. I've actualy shot several 5 shot strings to where the barrel was pretty warm then set the gun down,in the sun, (as their was zero shade except what our bodies made)and the barrel was hotter than after I shot the groups , it diden't have any affect on accuracy. I have a BlackStar barrel on a 22-250Ai that I have shot so much out of it that the barrel got hot enough to start making the oil in the stock smell its typicaly a sub 1/2" gun and the groups did start to open up to the 3/4moa range but their were dozens of rounds fired witout cleaning so I'm not gonna blame it all on the heat. What part of Mississippi are you from [/QUOTE]
