[QUOTE="X-man, post: 803913, member: 8416"] I agree, but I think you can get a bit more than 1000 if you are easy on the barrel during long range hunting style (no competition here) practice was more to my point. I have seen guys that are real gentle on them and set the barrel back once at around 1000 round mark, then go on to get close to 1500 rounds. I have never been so lucky (or that patient) and as soon as I feel that throat roughness with the bore mop (or see it with my bore scope) its off to the smith for another tube. I can not be bothered to set a barrel back, but I mention it for guys on a tight budget. FWIW My last 300Rum didn't make 700 rounds and looked heavily frosted by 500. What a cranky rig! Never buy a bore scope! :) [/QUOTE]
