I was shooting revolvers, a .22 LR and a .357. Neither of those was ever going to get hot yesterday. With rifles, cold days are actually nice, because there's a lot less time spent waiting around for barrels to cool down.JEBar wrote:just curious, how many rounds did it take to heat up the barrel ..
Happy New Year All!

Good to get out even if chilly. I took half my trigger finger off a few years ago roping a cow and what's left of it has no circulation at all so it's cold year round but worse now. Oh well, still good to shoot though.
