[QUOTE="imforguns, post: 1515547, member: 39626"] Bore erosion has more to do with case capacity to bore ratio than the friction caused by the bullet. Coating the bullet or the barrel would help barrel ware. When the powder ignites its like a blow torch. More powder more heat. The hotter the barrel get the faster it the throat erodes. You can find an Overbore Index Chart on accurate shooter dot com. They also have a spreadsheet that can be downloaded to calculate barrel life. [/QUOTE]
