[QUOTE="orch, post: 1205342, member: 35688"] Sounds about right at those speeds..... One of the guys I shoot with has one and the barrel started vaporizing bullets around 1000 rounds, all the sudden we weren't able to spot hits at distance so we tried shooting at a 100 x 300 foot dugout full of water at 50 yards and it wouldn't even ripple the water... He down loaded it to 3300 fps and it shoots accurately out to 1000 yards still but he has to clean all the copper out after about 12 to 15 rounds or it will start tearing bullets apart.... He isn't planning to rebarrel it to 22-284 again.. Wants to make something that'll last a little longer. if you have a gun that shoots good it's hard not to shoot it all the time.... Orch [/QUOTE]
