[QUOTE="CONatureBoy, post: 2701588, member: 118769"] I hear you about the barrel life. I'm not worried about it, just curious. My 264 barrel has maybe 20 rounds through it (and I own several hunting rigs). But I've been thinking of using the gun to practice long-range shooting, and practice can burn through a barrel pretty fast. If there's a way to extend the barrel's useful life (say by re-chambering it for the Nosler 26, or setting it back), that might be worth some money. And these days a Krieger barrel made to order takes about a year. (I know; I have one on order right now, and I've already waited most of a year.) I hunt primarily with a 300 RUM shooting Berger 210s and 230s at 3,000 fps. I guarantee you those sorts of loads knock things down better than anything short of a 338. Nothing against the 264. I love it. [/QUOTE]
