[QUOTE="stanley52, post: 1000186, member: 62465"] So I checked out the accurateshooter barrel life calculator and it shoots out that my 180AI will have a lower barrel life than a 6.5-284. I believe the numbers were something along the lines of 1200 shots vs 1300. My load is 58.5gr H4831sc. I calculated the 6.5-284 just based off a max nosler manual charge (49gr of____). I have 500 rounds through my 280 AI, never had one before, and I have never owned a 6.5-284. It seems that calculator gave a pretty close estimation from my understanding of the accurate life of most 6.5-284's but I was under the impression a 280 AI should be looking more like 2000-2500. Anyone care to shed light on any of this? [/QUOTE]
