[QUOTE="Calamity, post: 2193607, member: 112048"] The cause of heating is friction, so using a spray dry lubricant such as molybdenum disulfide or PTFE and a dry patch occasionally should increase barrel life and the number of shots fired before a barrel reaches a given temperature. I expect it will effect load dynamics as well, but in a positive way. I have read articles claiming some of the military labs swear by an immersion treatment in molybdenum disulfide solution that plates the bore. The spray cans are available in gun stores. Anyone have experience with barrel lubes? [/QUOTE]
