airedale Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Shooting from the bench on these hot days gets your rifle barrel hot quickly, especially the light thin sporter barrels and they stay hot forever. Anyone knows hot sporter barrels start causing shots to wander some and open groups, I started looking for a solution to cool the barrels down relatively quick as I like knowing where my hunting rifles shoot with a cool barrel especially the first couple of shots. I found several barrel cooling devices and decided to go with a "Chuckwalla" universal barrel cooler from competition shooting school. I chose this model over the others because it uses the much more common AA batteries. You just place the device in your rifle's chamber and turn it on and it will get the barrel cooled back down much quicker than just waiting around to cool on it's own. I think it works pretty good and keeps thing moving along on the bench. Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoots100 Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago I like the idea, but I prefer putting the hot barreled rifle in the shade and heating up another rifle. SJC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
