Even placing a round at outside air temp in a hot chamber can make a difference.

    Now you have mentioned it Iit reminds me to test my new thermometer on rounds in and out of the sun to see what the difference is. I will also try and get a temp on a barrel on Saturday after 12rounds of 308.


    regards

    I know where you are coming from but when was the last time it was 45+ & -30 here like it can be in the States ?
