[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 3078225, member: 122164"] One thing about using a fan to cool your barrel, when the air temp is 90*+, fans are not very effective, we found this out shooting p. dogs. The use of 50/50 water on the outside of the barrel, applied to the point where it is dripping off the bottom of the barrel is very effective and impressive in how fast it cools the barrel. On guns that had fiberglass stocks with Stainless actions, we filled the whole barrel channel full of the 50/50 water/alcohol , and was amazed at how it cooled the barrel. On rifles that had blued barrels in wood stocks, we oiled the outside of the barrel when we got home or had it in our cleaning kit at the rifle range. [/QUOTE]
