[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 712422, member: 48043"] I know the 300 rum has somewhat diminished bore life compared to the 300 win. I'm at 1200 rounds and change on my 300 win and it shows no real wear. My 300 rum was bought used and now has 500-600 rounds on it, also with no real wear. I've been using the same rum brass since I bought my 7rum(which I traded well worn), so 1/2 of my brass still says 7rum on the head. I've gotten some new brass, but it sits for the most part. I'm o.k. with 10 years or more of use out of a barrel. Watch your barrel heating, shoot when it's cold out, clean your barrel well, and watch your load intensity, and you'll double your barrel life or more. [/QUOTE]
