[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1459662, member: 12995"] Not really... Barrel burning has more to do with the case capacity vs. the bore diameter. The more powder packed behind a smaller bore, will have a longer burning and more concentrated flame, which will burn out the throat quicker than a cartridge with a larger diameter bore, and a smaller capacity case. For an easy comparison, think .26 Nosler vs. .308 Winchester. .26 Nosler lasts about 500-600 rounds of accurate barrel life. .308 Win will last 8,000+. This is because the .308 Win has a larger diameter bore and a smaller case capacity, so the flame is less concentrated and burns out quicker. [/QUOTE]
