[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 481884, member: 1521"] A barrel can 'die' in multiple ways.. Even if performance extends past throat erosion(which is common), there is an ultimate killer shortly to follow: Carbon restriction I don't know the process of it, but I know accuracy potential forever disappears once a bore swages bullets down at an early point in their travel. Even further barrel setbacks won't help once this happens. Officially dead.. Now, what I 'think', is that carbon impinges itself into the bore(somehow), lifting it's surface. And I don't think this can be reached with abrasives -without damaging the bore as badly. [/QUOTE]
