[QUOTE="FAL Shot, post: 858912, member: 27328"] My FAL has 10K+ rounds and it shoots great. Never a malfucntion since 1993. An FAL in Texas has fired over 14K rounds without any cleaning whatsoever and it shoots great and functions perfectly. You just need to get a decent barrel on a decent rifle in the first place. Barrels of non-overbore magnums should be good for at least 20K rounds f treated halfway decently. My edition of The Ultimate Sniper says it takes an average of 2000 rounds to bring a barrel up to full accuracy. US Army tests showed that the M-16 reached maximum accuracy at 3000 rounds. Accuracy should be held for about 10X the rounds that it took to bring the accuracy up to peak. If this is not happening for you, then you are probably dealing with some kind of crap. Consider a diferent barrel or rifle. [/QUOTE]
