[QUOTE="ds, post: 70103, member: 3050"] LB, Below are figures taken with a digital meter from what I understand you attach a probe or something to a digital meter and it reads out temperature, useful for putting in a barrel so it seems like a fair working definition of warm. This was info from a thread on snipers hide. I did not copy the whole thread. " starting barrel temp 87 after 1 shot 91.1 cool of(approx.) 1.2 minute 90.1 1 shot 93.2 cool of(approx.) 1.2 minute 92.3 1 shot 95.1 cool of(approx.) 1.2 minute 94 1 shot 97.9 cool of(approx.) 1.2 minute 96(?) 1 shot 99.9 cool of(approx.) 1.2 minute 97.7 1 shot 101 cool of(approx.) 1.2 minute 99 4 shots maybe 15 sec apart up to deg 112 20 minutes cool down to 91, ambient temp was 83 9 shots approx 10-15 sec apart up to 126.7 30 minutes cool down to 94.1 ambient temp at 81.6 10 shots approx 10-15 sec apart up to 122 10 minutes cool down to 115 20 shots up to 152 deg 5 minutes cool down to 130 ambient temp at 82 10 minutes more cool down to 122 10 more minutes cool down to 108 ambient temp at 83.6 16 rds up to 147.7" I don`t really follow the bread in oven theory, ovens heat from the outside in, barrels heat from the inside out.
