[QUOTE="TracySes23, post: 815929, member: 52763"] Michael, I understand your logic and if it's true, then if I shorten a barrel to say 20 inches then I should have longer barrel life. Am I applying your logic correctly? When looking at specifications at the Savage website, I see barrel lengths of 26, 28, 29 & 30 inches for varmint and target grade rifles. Using your reasoning should I assume all lengths above 26 inches will erode barrels faster as the lengths increase? Now I'm potentially confused in an area where I wasn't before.:-) I do appreciate your input. Fortunately I'm not in a hurry to get this settled in my mind. I just like to venture into areas of extreme thoughts at times. If you have anymore thoughts, chime in. Spencer [/QUOTE]
