Whatever happened to those carbon fiber barrels? Those probably cool down faster, but that was from YEARS ago.
Fluted barrels should cool down a little faster than non-fluted. |

Ya I looked at those heat sinks from JP, it seems they are pretty dependent on being used with a JP barrel. I think I will just look at fluted barrels for better cooling.

I take a fan with me to the range and let it cool my bbls quicker than just letting them sit.

Seems to me surface area is pretty much what matters. More surface area means more cooling. Thus fluted barrels are superior for cooling.
