[QUOTE="joseph, post: 853127, member: 19151"] Maybe you will get 2000 out of a titanium barrel. Winchester had to chrome plate the chambers and inside the barrels to get more than 500 accurate rounds. If you don't believe me call Winchester and they will tell you. I don't think anyone even makes any WSSM rifles any more. It was a good idea, but it didn't pan out. I have never seen a bolt gun consistently group less than 5/8" five shot groups at 100 yds. Mine consistently groups in the .1s & .2s and my best 100 yd. 5 shot group was .084" with .105 gr. Berger VLDs. That is accurate shooting. With a little adjustment to the top lips of a .223 magazine and the 6MM Norma BR. will work in a M4 lower. Just chamber and bore the barrel for 6MM Norma BR. and you will have a very competitive bench rest rifle and might be possible to shoot less than 3" five shot groups at 1,000 yds. with it. Then you would have something to really have fun with. Oh, my best 1,000 yd. group was 3+1/4" and I am not even competitive at 1,000 yds. The WSSMs are not capable of that kind of accuracy. joseph [/QUOTE]
