[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 2594800, member: 7999"] How would you have identical components if one rifle is shooting heavy for caliber bullets at low vel and one rifle shooting light for caliber bullets at high vel? You say a lot of cool stuff, but the point of the thread was to talk about one of the wives tales that is spun around campfires and then quoted as fact. I started the thread in response to a comment that you made to [USER=41385]@ButterBean[/USER] about him running a Hammer Bullet at 4000 fps. Your comment was something along the line of "Why would you do that, it will just wear your barrel out faster.". I understand that it not easy to prove, because there is so many variables, but saying that speed will burn out a barrel faster is also just as hard to prove. You should not have made the statement as if it were fact. I still stand on my theory that identical rifles run at the same pressure with greatly diff vel will show no diff in barrel wear. [/QUOTE]
