[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 2285602, member: 5219"] I tried the wet towel approach which IMO is better than an air pump, but both methods are too slow. I use CO2 when I have to work up a load and don't want to spend the whole day waiting for the barrel to cool to ambient temp repeatedly as I test quite a few rounds. With careful monitoring the barrel begins to cool then CO2 is stopped but cooling continues as the cooler inside radiates to outside of barrel. I can get it back to ambient temperature in less than a minute. [URL='https://imageshack.com/i/poaC8t2Sj'][IMG]https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/xq90/924/aC8t2S.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
