With that kind of shooting at 100 yards it would be interesting to see how those same bullets do at say 150 or 200 yards.
I saw a plan somewhere of a barrel cooler. A length of 6 or 8" PVC pipe,capped and filled with ice.This guy had 1/2" aluminum rods in the ice,and would insert one in the bore after firing.I have to believe it would cool a barrel pretty fast.
