any one know of any that work? several little fans on market pushing ambient air thru the bore . had 1 and it was useless. pushing ambient air (95+ here in summer) is pretty much a non starter. any other devices on the market or knowledge about making one?

The Riflekuhl does work but is delicate, sounds annoying as F and chews through a battery quickly. Additionally the magnet will wipe the compass calibration on a Kestrel if it gets anywhere near it.
Someone else (here I think, may have been accurateshooter though...) made one from a rechargeable air mattress pump and vinyl tubing.
They also cut the base off a piece of brass for the specific rifle(s) and used it as a form fitting nozzle, not really needed IMO, a good fit on the tubing to the chamber is enough.

Water works, run a patch after for the quickest cool down.
But I use a large camping fan and make sure to stand the rifle up, helps cool it faster

This explains a lot!

one of these pumps with a smaller hose to put inside the chamber is great we also have one of those chamber chillers but the air pump puts out 100x's more air it's not quiet but it works and is cheaper than the chamber chiller at almost 40.00 or more ( items related to shooting they jack up the price ) it can charge in your car if need be but holds enough of a charge that's lasted us two trips to the range .
I made one.

Chamber Cooler by alcarl88
I designed this to cool down the chamber and barrel after strings of fire to get you back on the target sooner. It's good for sighting in or load development. I've tested it in Rem 700, Win 70, Weatherby Vanguard and Ruger 111. It fits in both long and short action rifles. It was designed around...

If the air’s 95 and let’s say your barrel is 200 it’ll still cool through convection. It probably just didn’t move enough air so it was slower. That’s why a fan feels cool, but a blast from a high pressure air hose feels cold.
Get a small air tank and rig up a long soft nozzle and blast the heat out. Seems like a good excuse for a small onboard compressor mounted under your vehicle.
