[QUOTE="Celt, post: 35406, member: 176"] <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><HR>My local gunsmith says he is rebarreling 300 rum's on a constant basis because guys are severely shooting out the throats in 300 to 400 rounds. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> That is a very low round count. The only 300 RUM I built that has gotten shot out so far did it at 3450 rounds of hot handlaods. That was when the customer could no longer hold 3/4" at 100 with her by seating the bullet out a bit or anything else he did with loads. This was with a Walther barrel, which do last a very long time. FWIW Celt [ 11-03-2004: Message edited by: Celt ] [/QUOTE]
