[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 323758, member: 11717"] Tank, I could only guess at the 7WSM barrel life. The 300 WSM has a good rep for barrel life.. I read one article where a guy won a competiton with 4000 rounds down the tube. Barrel life will be greatly affected by how hot your loads are... how hot you shoot the barrel and how well you maitain it. All that being equal, i think the 7WSM will out live the 7 RM, like the 300 WSM will outl ive the 300 WM. The 7 is more overbore than the 300 so it probably wont last as long. My guess.... with a well maintained and not abused barrel, 2000-3000 rounds. Maybe some 7WSM shooters can jump in. Mark [/QUOTE]
