So, since thinner profile barrels heat up faster and cool faster, I was thinking.
Does the barrel get hotter behind the gas block since that is closer to the "explosion"?
If this is so, does anyone make a barrel that is heavier behind the gas block but pencil thin in front of the gas block?
Would flutes behind the gas block allow faster cooling since there is more surface area in a fluted barrel?
See where I am going with this?
