[QUOTE="akmtnhnt, post: 2667061, member: 120824"] That's a hypothesis being suggested. Like one post above, I think you could figure that out with math and physics rather easily. Just looking at the thermal coefficient of expansion of lead, copper and stainless steel, both the lead and copper is going to contract more than the steel - stainless or cromoly. Given that, if you conducted an experiment to test this, I'd expect the opposite. That there is less pressure from copper/lead on the steel bore at colder temperatures than hot. [/QUOTE]
