[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2292858, member: 115658"] I would use an IR thermometer on numerous locations on my one piece barrels. Should the barrel be shiny & reflective I would test out temp differences on both bare shiny surfaces and those having a light coating of powdered lamp black. I would assume inner bore surfaces would be frying hot. I have a few light flyweight barrels that were replaced by heavier barrels because the flyweight barrels heated up quickly and then accuracy went away. [/QUOTE]
