[QUOTE="esshup, post: 1731332, member: 11101"] I bet the heat of the barrel has more to do with how fast it erodes than any other part of the equation. If I were to shoot 1 shot every hour for 2000 rounds vs. shooting the gun enough so you'd cook your hand on the barrel, I'd bet the barrel will have a much shorter life with the hot barrel. I was told not to shoot and let the barrel cool off if I couldn't rest my hand on the barrel in front of the scope. [/QUOTE]
