    Is this really a issue? I have never seen someone use a over barrel suppressor at the rage for continuous shooting, and even then you would have so much mirage that you wouldn't be able to see the target before heat was a real issue?
    Unless your in high winds or talking an aluminum suppressor?

    I put 30 rounds through my 308 in pretty quick succession and although the can was toasty the barrel wasn't.
