[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 699030, member: 48043"] I've got 500+ rounds on a lh m700 bdl 300 rum I bought used. It looks like new inside and will likely go another 1000 shots or more before I need to think about touching it. I run a 180 hornady at 3300 fps with rl25 lit by a 215 in rem brass. I clean every 20-40 shots and go to a visual clean, not just that patches are clean since they lie if your solvent can't pick any more crap up. Shoot in cold weather, don't heat her up, and shoot a few percent back charge weight wise, and you'll more than double bore life if you actually clean your rig. [/QUOTE]
