[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 2883621, member: 12443"] Barrels will last a lifetime or more if just used for LR hunting and a few practice rounds each year. Im still using a 50 + year old barrel chambered in 300 Wetherby necked down to 7 mm. I have pushed it to close to 3500 with the 162 gr Hornady match bullet. But my normal load is about 3350. BUT, we dont use the hunting guns for rock shooting. A 308 is all you really need for that, and again it will last a lifetime. [/QUOTE]
