[QUOTE="Gregg C, post: 1391953, member: 103471"] I personally have yet to shoot out a barrel, but I'm on the same page as Mr. Greyfox. I will say that I have one rifle that I don't want to use up, for sentimental reasons, but I don't shoot it much anyway. All the rest, are tools. I use my tools. I can't help but shake my head in wonder at some of the posts I read about worrying over barrel life. I understand the investment, both in time and money, for a high grade barrel. I don't understand the mind set of limiting ones use of something that was built for enjoyment out of fear of using it up. If it sits in the closet, I am not getting any enjoyment out of it. In my mind, for myself, it's like buying a screw driver that is only good for a certain number of screws, and then counting the screws driven , dreading the day when it drives it's last screw. Or worse, not using it, just BECAUSE that day is coming. I dunno, maybe I am all screwed up. Gregg [/QUOTE]
