What Pdog says......
I deal with that frequently. I get a little impatient & fire the next round before the pipe is cool enough. My .270 is remarkably accurate, almost scary accurate & a hot / warm barrel will change that in a hurry.
Also, I noticed with my new 25.06 - Brand new barrel shot looser than after a "burning in". All it took was a couple a 70 to 80 rounds & I noticed groups tightening up. I rescued it from a pawn shop & later found out it was barely a year old. It had no indication of having been shot at all. No brass residue on the extractor, no residue or any kind, anywhere. On a good day, even bad days it was good for 3 to 4 round tight cloverleafs.
Good luck with it
