Or if you already have battery powered Ryobi equipment get the $39 blower and attach a 6" piece of tubing to it - air coming out of the muzzle will blow your cap off ! ( ok maybe not that much but its 10 times more than commercial chamber coolers)The Magneto cooler is dramatically over priced and under powered my Brother Bean! Now....for 20.00 on Amazon...for the RE-CHARGEABLE Air mattress pump, AND BONUS LIGHT that's on the bottom, you can cool your barrel in about...1/3 of the Magneto time. You just need a piece of hose. 3 nozzles come with the pumps...I just glued the one that fit best onto the hose! " If Necessity is the Mother of Invention, then if you're like me..POVERTY ..must be the Father" Couldn't see paying that much for a low powered fan!
Or that....if you already have the 300.00 Ryobi equipment!Or if you already have battery powered Ryobi equipment get the $39 blower and attach a 6" piece of tubing to it - air coming out of the muzzle will blow your cap off !

I think you mean Ryobi inflator, not blower.Or if you already have battery powered Ryobi equipment get the $39 blower and attach a 6" piece of tubing to it - air coming out of the muzzle will blow your cap off ! ( ok maybe not that much but its 10 times more than commercial chamber coolers)
Yes ! Thank youI think you mean Ryobi inflator, not blower.

No one has tried their Stiehl leaf blowers yet ? lolYes ! Thank you
What he said ^^^Deal with it. Let it cool after 3 shots to ambient air temps. Doesn't matter if that is 30° or 115°. Keep the ammo out of the sun.
I shot today at Joe Foss. From 7:30 until 12:30. First one there, 2nd to last to leave.
or wait until there is snow on the ground like in the picture and barrel cool down is no longer an issue...lolThe best blower by far is the $39 ryobi from Home Depot with piece of tubing. But at 117 degrees you would want to suck air from ice chest or blow thru a copper tube buried in ice I would think. Also napa sells a plastic hose and fitting that fits on 2 liter soda bottle. Works perfect for pouring water down chamber thru barrel then patch dry. .
Nope. My mental health depends on my range time...or wait until there is snow on the ground like in the picture and barrel cool down is no longer an issue...lol
I'll add a little to this. You can use a bore guide, and lock it down just like would cleaning you barrel. Most of the equipment can be gotten at amazon, tanks including shutoff value set up, bore guide, and clear tubing from HomeDepot. The bore guide is tapper at the one end, so you get it to fit better tighter fit in the chamber. Check and fit the tubing at both ends. 3/8 size and full circle clamp down both ends. I end up using full circle clampes at each end to keep it together. Don't get the clamps at Homedepot juck. It's a Little pricey, but it beat sitting around all day waiting to cool that barrel off. I also got 2 20lbs tanks, I didn't want run out and drive 100 miles to fill the a tanks again.I live in Tucson; I know exactly what you are experiencing.
I used many methods until I built a CO2 system.
I saw tiny tanks featured in an ad in Precision Shooting years ago. Knew a guy who tried one. He told me the tank was too small to be any good. More tank volume is required to get the cooling effect of the expanding gas. The smallest tank you can use and still get the cooling effect is a 20 lb tank as seen in the picture.
The picture is old and shows a regulator. Unless you already own a regulator, you don't need one. I found out later all that is needed is a ball valve. There are a few brass fittings which the welding supply company should have on hand.
A rubber hose is attached and the tip is tapered so it will wedge into the end of the chamber.It only takes a few seconds to feel the barrel begin cooling. I stop when it gets close to ambient because the cooling will radiate after the valve is turned off.
The way I use the tank is to place hose in chamber, HOLD it in place then open up the valve on the tank then slightly open the regulator or ball valve to get the desired flow and save gas. If the regulator or ball valve should already be open and you open the tank valve without holding the hose you can get some interesting welts on the face, been there done that.
There are at least five guys at our range that use this system from time to time. Even one custom builder, Dave Miller. We can find no ill effects of using this system. I don't use it all the time but when things are hot or I want to work up a load it will shorten range time considerably.
Two days ago I was working with a 257 weatherby with temps in the 90s. I would shoot two then cool for 5-10 seconds, which was enough to cool the barrel to ambient.
