[QUOTE="jrock, post: 2727900, member: 78569"] Before I started using barrel coolers, on cool days, 3 minutes was enough between shots. 4 to 5 minutes in the heat of the summer, and in the shade. That is for sporter barrels with big game hunting cartridges. I highly recommend cooling your barrel with the bolt open in the vertical position. Hot air rises and it pulls air through the barrel faster. When I do a ladder test, I shoot about 20 rounds. 20x3 = 1 hour. With a good barrel cooler, I can cut that time down to twenty minutes. I also tend to shoot several guns at the same time so that helps with the wait times. I had a coworker tell me, "life is too short to eat burnt popcorn." I have found since using barrel coolers, life is too short [I][B]not[/B][/I] to use a barrel cooler. The barrel coolers we make cut that 3 to 4 minute time down to a minute. I like to use a usb battery pack with multiple outlets and run multiple coolers at the same time. [/QUOTE]
