I had just recently purchased and installed a new WOA 18" 1-7twist bbl for one of my AR's and wow what a nice and accurate bbl. I have had many different bbl's for different AR's and WOA shoots the best for me. Definetly will buy another.
I have been target shooting AR's for some time now (no competition) from .223 to 6.5 Grendel loads and was wondering if there is a big difference in AR's if you let your barrel cool in between rounds to save in longer accuracy? Is it worth to waste your time doing it on an AR platform. I would think it would help in any gun.
The way I usually shoot (50yrd-600yrd) is to shoot maybe 10-20rds and let cool for the time it takes to check my shots thru the spotting scope, mark my shots on paper,reload mags and check chrony data, usually a couple mins. I clean the bbl after about 100rds, its seems to help (when reloading).
But at some point even after cleaning accuracy falls off, im thinking its probly human error.
I have been doing it this way for years and get sub half-moa groups @ 100yrds with the right reloads. Im just wondering if there is anything I could do to get longer life in accuracy.
