[QUOTE="243winxb, post: 2941422, member: 97793"] [IMG]https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?media/5-56-fire-to-destruction-test-results.2186/full[/IMG]The bullet made it to the target. So heat treatment of the barrel may be the issue? Double stress relieved. To much heat from firing? Magazine fed rifle action? Each firing at 4500°F degrees & 1000 rounds fired needs looked at. Rapid fire when conditions were right? The heat buildup on a hot 80 degree day may reach 1600F degrees on the barrel? It may fail? Looks like it was 88F while shooting? More so firing maching guns.
