[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 128642, member: 8843"] Kirby don't you know that the BR boys don't know what the hell their doing any way !! or so we're about to hear I have shot a 243 with a medium Palma barrel several dozen times in a row on alot ofr ground rats it got so hot that the oil in the wood oil finished stock was smoking and it was free floated. That barrel diden't even last one trip ans was ruined after about 300 rounds , it has to be set back 3" to clean up the throat. thats when I was young and dumb-er and speed was everything that load was running a 55gr B-Tip oiut at over 4200fps!! Now , if the barrel is so hot I can't rest the inside of my wrist on it at the cahmber throat area for ever then its to hot , this is generaly about 3-4 round with a 300 Win mag. [/QUOTE]
