[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 1663604, member: 26077"] Maybe if you keep the barrel for its usable life, mark the barrel with the no free bore warning and don't shoot factory ammo in it you might be able to make that argument. I still do not understand what you guys that advise no free bore think the advantage is to making a Wildcat out of a SAMII spec hunting round though. As far as the 25-06 AI, I have never liked the feed reliability of AI shouldered cases. I would never have one in a hunting rifle. If it is all about barrel life the 25-06 is a WAY better idea than the 25 Bee but as far as the 25-06 AI, happy to give up the 150 fps to the regular 25-06 for 100% reliable feeding. [/QUOTE]
