[QUOTE="Brent, post: 5102, member: 99"] I'm not sure what temp to shoot for, but you should be able to keep temps down to whatever the first shot heats things up to, a little more or less if you want. What's too hot? Very subjective also, but seein's how I use my hand to test I'd say 153.295 degrees. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Sorry, couldn't resist. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] Good luck though, I couldn't begin to put a number and errosion rate on it, testing would be expensive too. Others may have more conclusive numbers for you. Might be worth a call to Dan Lilja or any of the barrel makers who may have tested such things to a solid conclusion. Good luck. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
