[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 387017, member: 1521"] Barrel burner stigmas are generally defined by those who group shoot alot(competitors). This is very challenging to bores, and subtle changes in performance show up immediately. I doubt there is a serious competitor who would stick with a 243 for long(not even in LR competition). It boils down to Powder amount per bore capacity as the major contributor. With this, a 6br or undersized 243 is favored. Hunting use is different really. Keep it clean, keep the barrel cool, and it will last a lifetime. Most hunters could not reach or maintain peak potential from their barrels anyway, much less know when it's forever fading. [/QUOTE]
