[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2817059, member: 122164"] Barrels are considered "consumables". I have a Hawkeye and a Teslong, they do not lie. There are degrees of fire cracking, and it is easy to tell which powders start the fire cracking quicker when you clean down to bare metal. Some powders will "wash" the lands out vs fire cracking. Some will "cook" the powder fouling so hard on the bore that they are somewhat difficult to get out. Choose your poison. OP, I suggest that you go over to accurateshooter.com where a flock of national champions hangs out along with F class gunsmiths, and you will get some first-hand experience with guys that are currently shooting the 200x in competition. Remember that barrels are consumables, and how fast you want to consume is up to you. Measure your leade growth every 100 rounds. [/QUOTE]
