Kinda depends.... there was a couple stages where the spent brass was too hot to touch. Shooting last at one stage, means you shoot fisrt on the next stage. If that next stage is only 30-75 yards away..... then you're starting with a hot gun.... especially when running a sporter weight(ish) barrel. There are times when you've got a mile hike between stations.... so everything should be back to ambient by then.
I know I 'cooked' more than a couple rounds, and that certainly could have led to several of the misses high.
