[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1588741, member: 10291"] It’s pretty common for the 6mm shooters at out club to check velocities when they approach the thousand round mark. While accuracy/precision testing may look OK, it’s not been uncommon to see a drop off in velocity and increased ES which can effect the long range scores. I believe this is a driving factor behind the popularity of the quick change barrel systems that are gaining in popularity. I will say that the bulk of our shooting is in the hot(80-90F) months and barrels do get quite hot. Perhaps this is a contributor to the shorter barrel life in my area. [/QUOTE]
