[QUOTE="Buano, post: 580991, member: 21641"] Any gun pushing a bullet at 3700 fps will burn barrels out — eventually. For hunters that's not relevant. Unless you are using the gun for varmints or target shooting the barrel will last several lifetimes, as no hunter I've ever met shoots enough big-game to burn out a barrel in his lifetime. Stainless barrels are more resistant to throat erosion than carbon steel, so stainless is the only way to go with a .257 Weatherby. [/QUOTE]
