[QUOTE="milo-2, post: 1947425, member: 33622"] For the sake of conversation, I am not in the camp where I would pay 3X. Yes, there are times when paying more for extended life would simplify the crap out of things. But for me, there are times when I don't want the life, as in I don't want that chambering, it is doing nothing for me and good barrel life prolongs the agony. I like new, as in new paint schemes, new cartridges, etc.. No doubt when I have something I like, it would be great to have the extended life, and I will give these a try. Not wanting to get into my shooting, but I just took possession of a 6BRA, I am a yr late in bringing it into service, and while in the build process, circumstances changed dramatically, and I did not pump the brakes on it. I have all the components to shoot it, and not taking the loss on a sale. If it had a 2X life barrel, I'd be firing this thing into 2022, instead, it is going to endure 100 rds in 2 hours every outing till it is toast. If the cerakote starts to run on the barrel I may slack off. But I would rather be halfway through a barrel and a magic wand could bless it if I choose so, and for that, paying 3X would be a bargain.
