Go to Amazon and order a Ylvar air pump .About 10 to 12 bucks . 3/8 hose and you are good to go. Rechargeable Takes a few minutes to cool. 3/8 fuel line works great. Tommy Mc the pump is about the size of a small apple.
I slip the hose onto an old rod guide and insert it into the action. oops to late
 
liquid Co2. Before I shot competively i used to roam the earth in search of Volkswagen sized rocks to drive over with my Bronco. Always carried a large bottle of Co2 to run air tools and air up tires. If you didn't know...Co2 comes out as a VERRRRY cold gas. I rigged up a boar guide and ran a little through the tube. COLD TUBE in a hurry.

WARNING......DO NOT USE CO2 AROUND ANY FLYING INSECTS. You will be swarmed in no time!!! Seems that the little buggers are attracted to it!!!!!

I've had a couple "barrel coolers" and at most they make a lot of noise and annoy everyone around you (Don't bring a super annoying device to a competition, please)

I started packing one of these with me... It's great for cooling a barrel quickly and is nice to have one hot days in general.

Not sure what channel i saw it on, but they put a full bee protection suit on a guy and a tube to catch the guys breath and he went near a bunch of hives. The bees didn't bother him. He got rid of the tube and was IMMIDEATLY attacked!!

Someone at our club matches has 3 that are so high pitched they cut through your ear plugs. It's so incredibly irritating... especially knowing they don't do that much, and the shooter has at least 90 minutes until his next match... just let it cool off bro.

Absolutely. Hunters and campers have known this for a long time. If you don’t believe me, go into the woods in your truck and then leave it running, see how the bugs swarm to the vehicle because it is outputting CO2. Also, we all put out CO2, and some people naturally put out more CO2 than others, and therefore some folks are naturally affected by bugs more than others. If we stand 50 yards apart in the woods, the bugs are minimal around my girlfriend and around me it’s a freaking feeding frenzy. Get a couple of those Thermacell things. I won’t bow hunt without one now.

CO2 works fast. but the tank is a pain to carry. and i have a small tank.

a cooler of cold water and chemistry squirt bottle allows you to squirt cold water down the barrel easy.
 
I learned this from some older PD shooters.

Just rub ice over the outside of the barrel and let
the water drain out the barrel channel.

This works well if PD accuracy is all you need. No
other stuff to drag around.

I did a sealing job on my wooden stocks and never
had any trouble.
