[QUOTE="Outlaw6.0, post: 693980, member: 23486"] Based on what exactly? How would they be any harder on a barrel than a conventional leadcore bullet? I could see some merit if the projectiles were tungsten or something crazy hard in a standard configuration instead of a bore rider..... I shoot nothing but Barnes in more than one of my rifles, they are by definition monolithic bullets. I can't tell you how many hundred .30 cal Barnes i've put down the factory barrel of my Lazzeroni Patriot but, It's a LOT. It still shoots great. IIRC the CEB's are machined from pure copper correct? A material that is actually[U] softer[/U] than the guilding metal used in "conventional" bullet jackets. If the material you are shooting is softer, how can it cause more damage? I don't know what his basis for that statement is but I sure hope LTLR can tell us how many of these he's shot, i'll be willing to wager is a good bit more than 100. Very interesting..... t [/QUOTE]
