    Hi mate, it's definatley not a stupid question. I wasn't shooting over a bonnet but there were a lot of rabbits and the rifle had around 30 shots through it before hand and it was getting very hot.
    I couldn't touch the barrel or suppressor for very long. There was no breeze and I had ammo in the mag but the bolt open between shoots to help cool things.
    I remember it getting so hot that I chambered a round , decided not to shoot and extracted it out and noticed the brass colouring on the projectile had dis- coloured !

    I know a lot of the guys on here use 2206H, I don't and this is my second 500g tub and I don't think I will use it again. Nothing wrong with it and I can't put my finger on any issue but there is something about the stuff that to my ears sounds a bit different.
    I am probably talking shit but I am not super comfortable with the stuff. May go back to BM2 or try something else.
