Summary

Cryogenically freezing barrels is a declared important step in some barrel manufacturers’ process. Entire services are available to cryo barrels for customers interested in accuracy, consistency and longer barrel life. Some say the process works wonders. Some say it’s a fallacy. Mark Boardman, Jimmy Hamilton, and Ryan Muckenhirn debate its relevance. One thing is certain, -300° F is Cold!

0:00.0	What is up everybody? Mr. Jim to my right Mr Ryan Muck and Hearn across from us right now now gentlemen
0:09.9	we've proven we've proven you can cryogenically freeze a human being and bring them back to life in the future.
0:17.6	We saw this in Austin Powers.
0:18.6	The science.
0:19.6	Mid-90s.
0:20.6	Yeah.
0:21.6	But we're going to talk about more important science today and that's cryogenically
0:26.4	freezing your barrel to potentially optimize performance.
0:32.2	Yeah, wake it up in a thousand years and it's better than ever.
0:35.8	It's well rested. Thaw it out. I feel like this is a topic, Ryan, where there can be two camps.

1:03.2	I don't know, it's an interesting topic.
1:04.5	When I read about what it does to a barrel,
1:08.7	which is cryogenically freeze it, Jim,
1:12.0	at negative 300 degrees Fahrenheit, which is extremely cold.
1:16.3	It's pretty cold.
1:17.3	Oh yeah.
1:18.3	It's doing some things to the metal that I think makes sense.
1:22.4	That's like, that's like late January at Lambo Field let me tell you
