[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 2060819, member: 88320"] In the life span of a barrel say 2000 rounds. If you shoot $1 bullets that’s 2k in bullets. A .50 bullet you pay half that. The savings is enough to buy another barrel, chamber and thread. Just cuz you spend some money on a quality custom rifle doesn’t mean you can throw money away for no reason. This is why I always try hornady ElDx and M I can spend a whole lot less over the life of multiple rifles than shooting a high end bullet with same results. I really like federal TLR bullets but the EDLX kill just as dead for half the money [/QUOTE]
