[QUOTE="dogz, post: 2300378, member: 5429"] k, this is a very old school approach............when I get to the range I stick the rifle sitting muzzle up in the gun rack. Then I take a probe thermometer (just like one from the kitchen) in the end of the muzzle. I let it sit like that while I'm setting up the bench. Then, before I get to shooting I look at the temp. That'll give me a base barrel temp. B4 shooting don't freaking forget to remove the thermometer! I'll shoot my string then the rifle goes back in the gun rack. Therm goes back in the muzzle and then I wait for that internal temp to go back down b4 I shoot again. Works for me and my impatient ways:) [/QUOTE]
